Verified Peptides Melanotan II

Description

Melanotan II is a synthetic cyclic analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, used as a reference peptide in melanocortin research. Researchers study it as a broad melanocortin-receptor agonist.

In cultured cells and laboratory animals, investigations have focused on melanocortin-receptor binding, pigmentation signaling, appetite-pathway modulation, and behavioral responses. Its cyclic structure makes it a stable probe for melanocortin research.

Intended use: In vitro and preclinical in vivo laboratory research only. Not approved for human or veterinary use.
