Melanotan 2-Acetate – Tanning Photoprotection Peptide

Price range: $68.00 through $195.00

Melanotan 2 Acetate (Melanotan II / MT-II) Research Highlights
• Synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analog of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH)
• Non-selective agonist at melanocortin receptors MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, and MC5R
• Stimulates melanogenesis (increased eumelanin production) for enhanced skin pigmentation, observable with or without UV exposure in early studies
• Activates central pathways linked to sexual arousal and erectile response (primarily via MC4R)
• Associated with appetite suppression through hypothalamic MC3R/MC4R signaling in research models
• Early human pilot studies demonstrated measurable skin darkening and spontaneous erections
• Structural predecessor that informed the development of the more selective peptide bremelanotide (PT-141)

Description
Melanotan 2 Acetate is a conformationally constrained cyclic lactam heptapeptide (Ac-Nle-cyclo[Asp-His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Lys]-NH₂) designed as a superpotent analog of native α-MSH. It functions as a non-selective agonist at melanocortin receptors MC1R–MC5R. Binding to MC1R on melanocytes elevates intracellular cAMP, activates the MITF pathway, and upregulates tyrosinase, driving eumelanin synthesis and skin pigmentation. Concurrent activation of central MC3R and MC4R receptors modulates hypothalamic circuits involved in sexual motivation, erectile signaling, and energy balance, producing the secondary effects of increased libido and reduced appetite observed in preclinical and limited early-phase human studies.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
