What is Melanotan I?

Melanotan I (afamelanotide) is a linear α-MSH analogue with high MC1R selectivity. It is used in laboratory research to study eumelanin synthesis, photoprotection and melanocortin-receptor pharmacology, with a cleaner receptor profile than Melanotan II.

Mechanism of action

Selective melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) agonism driving eumelanin synthesis.

Primary research areas

Melanogenesis, photoprotection and MC1R pharmacology research.

Research notes

  • More MC1R-selective than MT-2 — no MC3/MC4-driven sexual-behaviour endpoints.
  • Frequently benchmarked against MT-2 in receptor-selectivity studies.
