Melanotan II

Melanotan II is a research-grade compound supplied for laboratory and scientific use only. Melanotan II (MT-2) is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It is studied for melanocortin receptor (MC1R/MC3R/MC4R) agonism, pigmentation pathways, and related signaling in preclinical models.

Supplied as a lyophilized powder, sealed against light and moisture. Shelf-stable with no cold chain required. Every lot is independently assayed and the Certificate of Analysis is published before the compound is listed. Strictly for in-vitro laboratory research.

Research Applications

• Melanocortin receptor (MC1R, MC3R, MC4R) agonism studies
• Pigmentation and melanogenesis pathway research
• 99% purity with third-party HPLC and mass spectrometry verification
