MT1 10mg Lyophilized Powder (Research Grade)

This premium research-grade peptide formulation is prepared as a highly purified, sterile lyophilized powder designed exclusively for controlled in vitro laboratory evaluation. Each 10mg vial is manufactured to rigorous analytical standards, ensuring structural stability, chemical uniformity, and high reproducibility across sensitive experimental workflows.

Melanotan-1 (MT1, also known as Afamelanotide) is a synthetic peptide analog of endogenous alpha-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone ($\alpha$-MSH). Structurally modified to exhibit enhanced metabolic stability, it functions as a potent, non-selective agonist with high affinity for melanocortin receptors, specifically demonstrating high selectivity toward the MC1 receptor subtype. Within biochemistry, cellular signaling, and photobiology research settings, it serves as a specialized chemical tool for investigating pigment cell mechanics and receptor transduction pathways.

Key Research Applications:

  • MC1R Subtype Binding Kinetics: Applied in cellular assays to evaluate the compound's specific binding affinity, intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) generation, and activation thresholds of the MC1 receptor compared to other subtypes.

  • Melanogenesis Pathways: Frequently utilized in melanocyte cell culture models to study the molecular signaling cascades governing tyrosinase enzyme activation and subsequent melanin synthesis in vitro.

  • Cellular Photoprotection Models: Investigated within laboratory dermatological research to observe downstream cellular survival pathways, DNA repair kinetics, and inflammatory modulation under simulated ultraviolet (UV) radiation stress.

This product is structurally verified and vacuum-sealed under sterile conditions to preserve maximum chemical integrity during laboratory handling and storage.

Important Notice: For In-Vitro Laboratory Research Use Only. This product is a raw chemical reagent intended exclusively for evaluation by trained professionals. Not for human or animal consumption, therapeutic, or diagnostic use.
