Description
Melanotan II is a synthetic cyclic analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). Its cyclic structure, formed by the D-Phe substitution and lactam bridge, confers increased receptor affinity and resistance to enzymatic degradation compared to the native hormone. Supplied at 99.1% HPLC purity with full COA.
Research has explored Melanotan II's activity at MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, and MC5R melanocortin receptor subtypes, producing a broader pharmacological profile than the linear Melanotan I (afamelanotide). Studies have investigated melanogenesis stimulation, pigmentation pathways, and receptor binding kinetics.
The cyclic structure is key to its pharmacological profile. Researchers should distinguish between MT-I (afamelanotide, linear) and MT-II (cyclic) when designing and interpreting research protocols.
Research & Guides
Frequently Asked Questions: Melanotan II
Melanotan II is a cyclic α-MSH analogue studied in preclinical research for effects on melanogenesis, pigmentation pathways, and MC receptor activity. For in-vitro laboratory research use only.
Our Melanotan II 10mg is independently verified at 99.1% HPLC purity with full COA documentation.
Store lyophilised at −20°C long term. Once reconstituted with BAC water, store at 2–8°C and use within 4 weeks, protected from light.
Melanotan II is legal to purchase in Australia for in-vitro research purposes. Not for human consumption, cosmetic, or therapeutic use.
Melanotan I is a linear α-MSH analogue with greater MC1R selectivity, while Melanotan II is cyclic with a broader melanocortin receptor binding profile including MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, and MC5R. They are structurally and pharmacologically distinct research compounds.
