About Melanotan 2

Melanotan 2 (MT-2) is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analog of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH). As a non-selective melanocortin receptor agonist, it exhibits binding affinity across MC1R through MC5R subtypes, making it a versatile tool for in-vitro receptor characterization and signaling pathway analysis.

Each vial contains pharmaceutical-grade lyophilized Melanotan 2 powder, sealed under sterile conditions for maximum stability and shelf life. The compound is independently verified to ≥99% purity by third-party HPLC and mass spectrometry analysis.

Available as a 10mg research-grade preparation to support a range of in-vitro and laboratory research protocols.

Research Applications

Melanotan 2 has been extensively studied in preclinical and in-vitro research contexts. Key areas of published research include:

  • Melanocortin receptor binding affinity and selectivity profiling (MC1R–MC5R)
  • cAMP signaling pathway activation in melanocortin receptor-expressing cell lines
  • Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies of cyclic melanocortin peptides
  • Comparative agonist profiling against α-MSH and other melanocortin analogs
  • Receptor internalization and desensitization assays
  • Melanocortin system involvement in energy homeostasis models

All research references are available upon request. This compound is sold exclusively for in-vitro and laboratory research use.
