We accept
Melanotan 2 is a synthetic analogue of the endogenous peptide alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), cyclized to enhance metabolic stability. Supplied as a lyophilized powder in a sealed pharmaceutical-grade glass vial. Intended for in-vitro and laboratory research applications only.
Mechanism of Action
Melanotan 2 acts as a non-selective agonist at melanocortin receptors (MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, and MC5R). Activation of MC1R is associated with melanogenesis research, while MC3R and MC4R engagement has made it a subject of interest in energy homeostasis, appetite regulation, and sexual function studies. Its cyclized structure confers greater receptor binding affinity and resistance to enzymatic degradation compared to native α-MSH, making it a widely used tool compound in melanocortin system research.
