Description

Melanotan I is a potent non-selective melanocortin receptor (MCR) agonist. Melanotan I is a synthetic analogue of α-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) that stimulates melanogenesis. Melanotan I can induce skin tanning by mimicking the actions of a-MSH on the melanocortin type 1 receptors (MC1R) of melanocytes. Melanotan I can be used for the research of sun-induced skin cancer, melanoma, inflammation and male erectile dysfunction[1][2][3][4].–80°C, 2 years; -20°C, 1 year (Powder, sealed storage, away from moisture)—-C78H111N21O19—-[1]Langan EA, et al.
