Melanotan 2 (MT2) – 10mg

Melanotan 2 (MT-2) is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analog of alpha-melanocyte–stimulating hormone (α-MSH), designed for enhanced stability and broad melanocortin receptor interaction. In controlled laboratory environments, MT-2 is used to investigate melanocortin receptor activation (MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, and MC5R), GPCR signaling dynamics, cyclic AMP (cAMP) pathway activation, and biochemical mechanisms associated with melanocortin-family peptides.

Foundational receptor-binding and biochemical characterization studies indexed under PMID: 1321234 identify Melanotan 2 as a potent nonselective melanocortin receptor agonist with a stable cyclic backbone, supporting consistent use in mechanistic in-vitro research.

MT-2’s cyclic structure provides enhanced resistance to enzymatic degradation, enabling reliable implementation in biochemical assays, receptor signaling models, intracellular second-messenger studies, and peptide–receptor interaction mapping.
