Research Overview
Nonapeptide-1 is a synthetic 9-amino-acid peptide that antagonizes alpha-MSH binding to MC1R, reducing melanin production. Unlike Decapeptide-12 which inhibits the enzyme tyrosinase, Nonapeptide-1 works upstream by blocking the receptor signal that initiates melanin synthesis.
Key Research Findings
- •Antagonizes α-MSH at MC1R to reduce melanin signaling
- •Works upstream of tyrosinase — blocks the melanin production signal
- •Complementary mechanism to Decapeptide-12 for comprehensive depigmentation
- •Used in skin-brightening cosmetic formulations
Research Dosage Protocols
Applied topically at 0.5-2% in depigmenting formulations.
