MT-1 (Melanotan I) — Research Peptide for Pigmentation & Receptor Signaling

MT-1 (Melanotan I) is a synthetic analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) used in laboratory research to study melanocortin receptor signaling and melanogenesis pathways. It is investigated in vitro for its receptor selectivity, pigment-related cellular signaling, and UV-response mechanisms in controlled experimental models. Reconstitute with 3 mL of sterile water prior to laboratory use.

For in-vitro laboratory research only. Not a drug, food, cosmetic, or veterinary product. Not for human or animal administration.
