Melanotan I 10mg

Melanotan 1 (MT-I) is a synthetic peptide similar to the endogenous alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH). MT-I comprises 13 amino acids, the same as α-MSH, but differs by only two amino acids from the endogenous peptide hormone. MT-I appears to mimic the function of the endogenous α-MSH and may bind to the melanocortin receptors to stimulate the production of eumelanin, a photoprotective compound. This eumelanin may protect tissues from any damage induced by UV exposure. Moreover, eumelanin production also reportedly contributes to increasing levels of pigmentation in skin cells.
