Melanotan 1 10MG

Melanotan 1 (MT-1) is a 13-amino-acid peptide designed to mimic the naturally occurring hormone alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), which regulates melanin production in the skin. MT-1 selectively binds to the melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) on melanocytes, triggering a signaling cascade that increases eumelanin synthesis, the brown-black pigment that provides UV protection and antioxidant activity. Unlike α-MSH, MT-1 is more stable, has a longer half-life, and is up to 26 times more potent, allowing for effective photoprotection and gradual tanning For in-vitro use only.
