About MT-2 (Melanotan 2 Acetate)
What Is Melanotan 2?
Melanotan 2 (MT-2) is a synthetic analogue of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It is a cyclic lactam heptapeptide that binds to melanocortin receptors (MC1R through MC5R), making it a versatile tool for studying pigmentation pathways, sexual function, appetite regulation, and inflammatory responses.
Why Researchers Choose MT-2
- Multi-receptor activity — Activates MC1R (pigmentation), MC3R (energy homeostasis), MC4R (appetite/sexual function)
- Extensive literature — One of the most-studied melanocortin peptides with hundreds of publications
- Stable cyclic structure — The lactam bridge provides enhanced stability compared to linear α-MSH
- Dose-dependent effects — Well-characterized dose-response curves across multiple endpoints
Key Research Areas
- Melanocortin receptor pharmacology
- Pigmentation biology and UV protection mechanisms
- Sexual function and erectile response pathways
- Appetite regulation and feeding behavior
- Inflammatory modulation via melanocortin signaling
