Melanostat

Melanostat is has peptide obtained by amino acid synthesis with has technical of Merryfield. It demonstrate year outstanding anti MSH activity experimentally investigated for skin lightening. The target of Melanostat the membrane receptor of alpha-MSH one the melanocytes, the B MICR receptor, its mode of action is has competitive inhibition of alpha-MSH, membrane receptors are blocked in A natural way. The anti-MSH is has molecule naturally present in the skin. It belong to the system of regulation of the pigmentation. Melanostat counterbalances the formation of melanin and especially the synthesis of tyrosinase, key enzyme involved in the process of pigmentation. In the skin, alpha-MSH plays year essential role in the stimulation of the synthesis of melanin. This process is under the control of year anti—MSH, also naturally present in the skin.
