    Research dossier

    Melanotan II is a synthetic analog of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH). Research published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism has explored its interaction with melanocortin receptors (MC1R-MC5R). Studies in Peptides (2009;30(10):1810-1817) demonstrated significant melanocortin receptor binding affinity. Additional research in the British Journal of Dermatology (2009;160:1066-1074) examined photoprotective properties in cell culture models. In-vitro studies published in Life Sciences (2005;77(17):2108-2119) investigated its effects on melanocyte proliferation and melanin synthesis pathways.

    For Research Use Only
    Research Use Only: All information below describes in-vitro laboratory findings. Melanotan 2 (MT-2) 10mg is not an FDA-approved drug and is not intended for human consumption, therapeutic, or diagnostic use.

    Melanotan 2 is a synthetic cyclic analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It is a non-selective agonist of the melanocortin receptors and is used in preclinical melanocortin-system research.

    Published in-vitro and animal work has examined melanocortin-receptor signaling, melanin biology, and appetite/energy-balance pathways. It is not FDA-approved and is provided strictly as a reference compound for laboratory research.

    Third-party HPLC + MS tested lyophilized powder. Store sealed vials refrigerated and reconstitute with bacteriostatic water immediately before use in a research protocol.

    Melanotan 2 (MT-2) 10mg (SKU ML10) is independently HPLC and mass-spectrometry tested to 99%+. A third-party tested Certificate of Analysis is published publicly on this product page — no request required.
