    Applications
    The Melanocortin 1 Receptor (MC1R) is a G-protein coupled receptor primarily expressed in melanocytes. It plays a pivotal role in determining skin and hair color by regulating the type of melanin produced. Variants of the MC1R gene are associated with red hair, fair skin, and increased susceptibility to skin cancer. Beyond its role in pigmentation, MC1R has been implicated in anti-inflammatory responses, pain perception, and even the modulation of addictive behaviors. Its diverse functions make MC1R a subject of intense research, with implications for understanding skin biology, neurobiology, and potential therapeutic interventions.
