MT-2 (Melanotan II)

Broad Melanocortin Receptor Research Peptide

MT-2, commonly known as Melanotan II, is a synthetic analog of alpha-melanocyte–stimulating hormone (α-MSH). In laboratory settings, it is studied for its interaction with multiple melanocortin receptors (including MC1R, MC3R, and MC4R), influencing pigmentation and neuroendocrine signaling pathways.

Due to its broader receptor activity compared to MT-1, MT-2 has been widely researched in models evaluating accelerated melanin production and enhanced pigmentation response.

This compound is supplied at >99% purity and is independently third-party lab tested to verify identity and analytical standards.

Description

Scientific Background

MT-2 binds to melanocortin receptors involved in melanin synthesis and central signaling pathways. In controlled research environments, melanocortin analogs such as MT-2 have been evaluated for:

  • Increased melanin production in pigmentation models
  • Faster and deeper tanning response under UV-exposure research conditions
  • Enhanced pigmentation efficiency compared to more selective analogs
  • Photoprotection pathway activation studies
  • Neuroendocrine signaling research

Because of its broader receptor profile, MT-2 is often referenced in research models where a more rapid or pronounced pigmentation response is being evaluated compared to MT-1.

Peer-reviewed publications indexed through the National Library of Medicine include investigations into melanocortin receptor signaling and pigmentation pathway modulation in laboratory settings.
