| Bioactivity | MIF-1 (Melanostatin), an endogenous brain peptide, is a potent dopamine receptor allosteric modulator. MIF-1 inhibits melanin formation. MIF-1 blocks the effects of opioid receptor activation to modulate the analgesic effects. MIF-1 accesses from the blood to the CNS by directly crossing the blood-brain barrier (BBB)[1][2][3]. |
| Invitro | MIF-1 (Melanostatin, 1 μM) provokes a reversible hyperpolarization and a suppression of spontaneous action potentials[2]. |
