Description
Summary
Melanotan 2 is a synthetic cyclic lactam analogue of naturally occurring alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It acts as a non-selective agonist of the melanocortin receptors (MC1, MC3, MC4, and MC5), primarily known for stimulating melanogenesis (skin pigmentation) and influencing lipid metabolism and sexual function. It is utilised in research settings to explore the melanocortin system’s role in physiological regulation. For research use only—not for human consumption.
Clinical Data
In preclinical trials, Melanotan 2 has displayed potent melanogenic activity, stimulating the production of eumelanin in melanocytes significantly faster than UV exposure alone. Rodent studies involving diet-induced obesity have observed that activation of the MC4 receptor by Melanotan 2 results in immediate appetite suppression, increased metabolic rate, and rapid weight loss. Furthermore, research into sexual dysfunction has shown that subcutaneous administration in rat models induces erectile activity via central nervous system mechanisms, distinct from vascular-acting agents. Common adverse effects noted in trial subjects include transient nausea and facial flushing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Ideal storage can differ between different peptides. TransformPeptides preserves unreconstituted lyophilized peptides in a freezer (-20°C) for long-term stability. Refrigeration (1-8°C) is suitable for the storage of lyophilized peptides for at least 3 months after delivery. Reconstituted peptide storage conditions and stability/potency timeframes may differ. All Bacteriostatic and Sterile water should be kept in the fridge (1-8°C) to maintain sterility.
