Melanotan I, also known as Afamelanotide, is a remarkable peptide that was first developed in the late 1980s by researchers at the University of Arizona. Their goal was to explore how our bodies naturally produce melanin, the pigment responsible for giving our skin, hair, and eyes their color.
Melanotan I works by mimicking the effects of a natural hormone in your body that stimulates melanin production. Melanotan 1 primarily increases the process of melanin production known as melanogenesis. It does this by binding to the melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1). This process reduces sun-damage to the skin exposed to ultraviolet rays and also creates beneficial effects on a broad range of skin-related illnesses. In patients with skin sensitivity caused by sunlight, Melonatan I enabled patients to spend up to seven times longer in direct sunlight without experiencing pain than patients who received placebo treatment.
