MT-1 10mg

Melanotan 1 is a synthetic analogue of α-MSH, featuring Nle4 and D-Phe7 substitutions (NDP-α-MSH). This peptide serves as a valuable tool for investigating melanocortin receptor interactions and downstream signaling pathways in experimental model systems.

Key Features:

• α-MSH analogue (NDP-α-MSH) designed for in vitro receptor signaling and structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies.
• Supplied as a lyophilised powder to ensure stability and ease of storage.
• Each vial contains 2 mg of peptide.
• Every batch undergoes rigorous internal quality control before release.

Research Applications:

Melanotan 1 is widely used to study melanocortin receptor subtype engagement, quantify downstream second messenger responses, and evaluate potency and selectivity within the α-MSH peptide family. These investigations focus on receptor pharmacology and assay outcomes in strictly controlled, non-clinical in vitro environments.

Synthesis and Quality Assurance:

Manufactured through validated peptide synthesis processes, Melanotan 1 is produced with high purity and consistent quality. Each batch is subjected to identity, purity, and appearance verification prior to release.
