MT-II Published Research

Melanotan II (MT-II) is a synthetic analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It was developed at the University of Arizona and has been studied for its activity at melanocortin receptors (MC1R-MC5R), with research published across dermatological, sexual medicine, and appetite regulation fields.

Melanocortin Receptor Research

Published research has characterized MT-II's agonist activity across multiple melanocortin receptor subtypes. Studies examined its binding affinity profiles at MC1R through MC5R and compared its receptor selectivity to other melanocortin analogs. Research investigated downstream cAMP signaling and melanin synthesis in melanocyte cell culture models.
