Melanotan-2 (MT-II) is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analog of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) that selectively activates melanocortin receptors MC1-R and MC4-R. In pre-clinical models, MC1-R stimulation promotes eumelanin production, leading to accelerated tanning and photoprotective pigmentation, while MC4-R engagement has been associated with appetite modulation and sexual arousal.

Research Highlights

• Photoprotection: MT-II up-regulates eumelanin synthesis, allowing investigators to model UV-induced melanogenesis and assess pigment-mediated DNA damage mitigation.

• Energy & Sexual Function: Through MC4-R, MT-II serves as a tool to study central appetite regulation and neurogenic sexual behavior pathways.

• Receptor Pharmacology: High potency and receptor selectivity make MT-II a benchmark ligand for characterizing melanocortin signaling cascades.
