MT-2 — Research Use Only
MT-2, also known as Melanotan II, is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. It functions as a nonselective melanocortin-receptor agonist and is used in laboratory research involving pigmentation biology, melanocortin signaling, energy-homeostasis pathways, appetite regulation, and neurobehavioral responses.
MT-2 interacts with several melanocortin receptors, including MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, and MC5R. It is an experimental compound and is not an FDA-approved drug, tanning product, cosmetic ingredient, or dietary supplement.
