Melanotan II: Beyond Tanning
MT-II does more than tan. Melanocortin receptor research, multiple effects, and what to expect.
Melanotan II stimulates melanin production for tanning without UV. It also has libido-enhancing and appetite-suppressing effects.
Also known as: MT-2, MT2. Purity: ≥99%. Form: Lyophilized Powder.
Mechanism of Action
MT-II binds to MC1R in melanocytes (tanning), MC4R in brain (libido/appetite), and MC3R (metabolism). Multiple effects from one peptide.
Research Applications
• Melanin production studies
• UV-free tanning research
