Melanotan II (MT-II)
Research-Grade Melanocortin Analogue
Tagline: Pigmentation, Libido & Energy Balance Research
Product Description
Melanotan II (MT-II) is a synthetic analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) that acts as a non-selective melanocortin receptor agonist. It is widely used in research to study melanogenesis, sexual behavior, appetite regulation, and energy homeostasis.
Researchers investigate Melanotan II for its MC1R-mediated pigmentation effects, MC3R/MC4R roles in sexual and appetite behaviors, and potential neuroendocrine effects. Its broader receptor activity compared to Melanotan I allows exploration of multiple melanocortin pathways.

Why Researchers Choose Melanotan II
-
Non-Selective MC Agonist: Activates MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, and MC5R for multi-pathway research.
-
Potent Pigmentation Agent: Induces melanin production more strongly than Melanotan I.
-
Behavioral Research: Used to study libido, sexual arousal, and energy balance in preclinical models.
-
Extended Half-Life: More metabolically stable than endogenous α-MSH.
-
Batch Verified: Each lot tested for purity (≥98%) and potency.
