Melanotan II (MT2) is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analogue of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It is investigated in laboratory and preclinical research involving melanocortin receptor signalling, pigmentation biology and other melanocortin-associated pathways.
This product is supplied as 10mg lyophilised Melanotan II exclusively for laboratory and research purposes.
Not intended for human or veterinary use. This product is supplied exclusively for laboratory and analytical research.
Melanotan II, commonly abbreviated to MT2 or MT-II, is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide derived from α-MSH-related peptide research. Its cyclic structure was developed to produce a potent melanocortin receptor ligand for experimental investigation.
MT2 is characterised as a non-selective melanocortin receptor agonist and has consequently been investigated across a range of melanocortin-associated biological systems. Research includes melanocortin receptor signalling, melanogenesis and pigmentation biology, neurological pathways and metabolic signalling.
Pro-Peptides supplies Melanotan II as a 10mg lyophilised peptide exclusively for controlled laboratory, analytical and preclinical research.
