MC1-R / MC4-R Agonist — Analytical Reference Standard
Melanotan-2 (MT-II) is a synthetic analogue of the naturally occurring alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH). It acts as a non-selective agonist of melanocortin receptors, particularly MC1-R and MC4-R, and has been studied for its effects on melanogenesis, sexual function, and appetite regulation in laboratory models.
VELTRIDE Melanotan-2 is supplied as a lyophilized powder with ≥99% HPLC purity for in-vitro research applications.
