Melanotan II

Melanotan II is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analog of the naturally occurring alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), a key regulator within the melanocortin system. Functioning as a non-selective melanocortin receptor (MCR) agonist, this peptide primarily targets MC1, MC3, MC4, and MC5 receptors. Its mechanism of action involves the activation of these receptors, influencing a diverse range of physiological processes, including melanogenesis, energy homeostasis, and central nervous system functions.

This high-purity research peptide is an essential tool for investigators studying the intricate pharmacology and signaling pathways of the melanocortin system. Research applications include detailed investigations into skin pigmentation dynamics, receptor-ligand binding kinetics, and the roles of MCRs in appetite regulation, obesity research, and the mechanisms underlying sexual function. Our Melanotan II is supplied as a 10mg lyophilized powder with a guaranteed purity of ≥98%, ensuring precise and reliable experimental results.

Manufactured under stringent quality control standards, this research-grade peptide is specifically designed for in vitro and in vivo laboratory research. It provides scientists with a consistent and potent agent for exploring MCR-mediated biological effects and drug discovery initiatives. Melanotan II is strictly for research use only and is not intended for human consumption or therapeutic purposes.
