Research reference
Product specifications, research context, and handling information.
MT-1, also known as Melanotan I or afamelanotide, is a synthetic linear analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) studied in melanocortin receptor research.
Experimental systems examine MC1R signaling, pigment-cell pathways, and the structure–activity relationships of alpha-MSH analogs.
MT-1 is investigated as an alpha-MSH analog in melanocortin receptor models, particularly those examining MC1R-associated signaling. Observed responses depend on the experimental system and receptor expression.
MT-1 research focuses on melanocortin signaling and pigment-cell activity. Its linear peptide structure provides a comparison point for studies of related melanocortin analogs.
