Research Profile:
Melanotan II is a cyclic lactam analog of alpha-MSH with the amino acid sequence Ac-Nle-cyclo[Asp-His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Lys]-NH2. It is an analog of the peptide hormone alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH).
Melanotan II works by stimulating the alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH), causing Melanogenesis, a process where melanocytes produce melanin (pigment).
Melanotan II combats melanoma by stimulating the natural tanning mechanism to create a tan without first needing exposure to harmful levels of UV radiation. Melanotan II was first synthesized at the University of Arizona. |
