Dersimelagon (MT-7117) is an orally active, selective melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) agonist with EC50 values ​​of 8.16, 3.91, 1.14, and 0.251 nM for human (h), cynomolgus monkey (cm), mouse (m), and rat (r) MC1R, respectively. Dersimelagon exhibits good affinity for hMC1R and hMC4R, with Ki values ​​of 2.26 and 32.9 nM, respectively. Dersimelagon can be used in the study of skin pigmentation[1].

[D-Trp8]-γ-MSH acetate(321351-81-9 free base) is a selective melanocortin 3 (MC3) receptor agonist (IC50 values are 6.7, 340 and 600 nM for human MC3, MC5 and MC4 receptors respectively) and displays anti-inflammatory efficacy.

Setmelanotide (BIM-22493) is a selective agonist of melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R)(human and rat MC4R with EC50s of 0.27 nM and 0.28 nM, respectively).

Nonapeptide-1 (Melanostatine™ 5) can inhibit the synthesis of melanin, which makes it of interest for treating certain skin conditions.

Setmelanotide Acetate(920014-72-8 free base) (RM-493 Acetate) is a selective agonist of melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R)(human and rat MC4R with EC50s of 0.27 nM and 0.28 nM, respectively).

RO27-3225 TFA is a potent and selective agonist of melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R; EC50: 1 nM and 8 nM for MC4R and MC1R) with neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory effects. RO27-3225 TFA shows ~30-fold selectivity for MC4R over MC3R.

JNJ-10229570 (UNII-N9IX402L35) is an antagonist of melanocortin receptor 1 (MC1R) and melanocortin receptor 5 (MC5R), which inhibits sebaceous gland differentiation and the production of sebum-specific lipids.

SHU 9119 is an effective human melanocortin 3 and 4 receptors (MC3 4R) antagonist and a partial MC5R agonist (IC50: 0.23, 0.06, and 0.09 nM for human MC3R, MC4R and MC5R, respectively).

Nonapeptide-1 (Melanostatine-5) acetate salt is a peptide hormone that functions as a selective and competitive antagonist of the melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) with a binding affinity (K i) of 40 nM. It effectively inhibits α-MSH-induced increases in intracellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) and melanosome dispersion in melanocytes, with inhibitory concentrations (IC 50) of 2.5 nM and 11 nM, respectively. By inhibiting melanin synthesis, Nonapeptide-1 acetate salt is used in research related to skin pigmentation, adrenal gland steroid production regulation, and skin cancer [1] [2] [3].

Melanotan II acetate is an agonist of melanocortin receptor 1 (MC1R), MC3R, MC4R, and MC5R. It has been shown to improve recovery of sciatic nerve function after mechanical injury and increase cisplatin-induced decreases in sensory nerve conduction velocity. Melanotan II acetate increases oxygen consumption and protein levels of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) in brown adipose tissue homogenates and decreases food intake, body weight, and serum levels of leptin, glucose, insulin, and cholesterol.

Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) (4-10) TFA (Acth (4-10)) is an agonist of potent melanocortin(MC4R) receptor .

SHU 9119 acetate is a well-known antagonist of human melanocortin 3 and 4 (hMC3R, hMC4R) receptors and a partial hMC5R agonist. The IC50 values of human MC3R, MC4R and MC5R is 0.23, 0.06, and 0.09 nM respectively.
