摘要
Afamelanotide is a synthetic alpha melanocyte stimulating hormone presenting a higher activity than natural hormones. Its main properties are related to the enhanced production of eumelanin by agonistically binding to the melanocortin-1 receptor. Since 2016 afamelanotide has been especially applied to treat cases of erythropoietic porphyria (EPP), where painful photosensitivity has been observed since early childhood. The positive effect of af - amelanotide in EPP administered subcutaneously improved tolerance to artificial white light and increased pain -free time spent in direct sunlight. In this review we summarize the possible use of afamelanotide in dermatology, with special emphasis on EPP and encourage including afamelanotide as a treatment option in patient care.
