Melanotan 2 (MT2) 10mg
$50.00
Melanotan 2 is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide (Ac-Nle-c[Asp-His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Lys]-NH₂) that functions as a potent nonselective melanocortin receptor agonist. It is employed in receptor binding and signal transduction studies exploring MC1R–MC5R-mediated cAMP activation and GPCR desensitization mechanisms. MT-II provides a research model for peptide–receptor pharmacology and neuroendocrine signaling dynamics.
For research use only. Not for human consumption.
