Description
MT-2 | 10mg | Research Peptide
For In Vitro Research Use Only — Not for Human or Veterinary Use
Description
MT-2 (Melanotan II) is a synthetic analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) and is widely utilized in laboratory environments for its ability to activate multiple melanocortin receptors, primarily MC1R and MC4R.
In vitro research models commonly explore MT-2 for its potential role in:
Melanin synthesis and pigmentation pathways
Photoprotective responses following UV exposure
Appetite regulation, energy balance, and metabolic signaling
Sexual function pathways connected to melanocortin receptor activity
This 10mg lyophilized preparation is designed for controlled laboratory experimentation only and is not intended for any form of clinical or personal use.
