Cat. No.: HY-N2466
CAS No.: 75921-69-6
Synonyms: MT-I; [Nle4,D-Phe7]-α-MSH
Target:  

Melanocortin Receptor Drug Derivative

Research Areas:  

Metabolic Disease Inflammation/Immunology Endocrinology Cancer

Melanotan I (MT-I; [Nle4,D-Phe7]-α-MSH) is an α-MSH (HY-P0252) analog, synthetic melanotropic peptide, and melanocortin receptor (MCR) agonist. Melanotan I induces skin tanning by mimicking the action of α-MSH on the melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) in melanocytes. As an appetite suppressant, Melanotan I impairs the ability of insulin to inhibit endogenous glucose production, suppresses leptin secretion from adipose tissue, and thereby reduces voluntary feed intake in ewes. Melanotan I can be used in research related to UV-induced skin damage, polymorphic light eruption, ruminant feeding, and sexual dysfunction .

Target:  

Tyrosinase

Research Areas:  

Others

Cysteine peptide is a tyrosinase inhibitor with skin-whitening, antioxidant and multi-regulatory activities. Cysteine peptide inhibits enzyme activity and blocks melanin transport, effectively reducing UV-B-induced skin erythema and pigmentation. Cysteine peptide synergistically maintains skin health by quenching ROS, resisting oxidative stress and promoting pheomelanin production. Cysteine peptide safely prevents daily ultraviolet damage and supports moderate sun exposure for vitamin D synthesis. Cysteine peptide also acts as a plant signaling factor to regulate vegetative growth, development and stress resistance responses .
