Description
Melanotan I, known generically as Afamelanotide, is a synthetic analog of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) that binds non-selectively across melanocortin receptors (MC1R through MC5R) with particular affinity for MC1R, the primary mediator of melanogenesis. It has been studied in both laboratory and clinical settings, with research focused on its effects on melanin production, UV-protective biological responses, and immune modulation through the melanocortin receptor system.
Afamelanotide has received regulatory approval in Europe (under the brand name Scenesse) for the prevention of phototoxicity in adults with erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP), providing a well-documented clinical research foundation. Laboratory research continues to explore its melanocortin receptor pharmacology, its comparative profile relative to Melanotan II, and broader aspects of melanocortin biology in preclinical models.
