Description
Melanotan 2 (MT-2) 10 mg – Peptide for Pigmentation
Composition: 10 mg Melanotan II (lyophilized peptide powder)
Category: Peptide
Form: Vial with freeze-dried powder
Administration: Subcutaneous injection after reconstitution with bacteriostatic water
What is Melanotan 2 (MT-2)?
Melanotan II (MT-2) is a synthetic peptide developed as an analogue of α-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone (α-MSH).
It binds to melanocortin receptors (MC1R, MC3R, MC4R), thereby stimulating melanin production in skin cells (melanocytes).
This enhances the natural pigmentation of the skin – independently of direct UV exposure.
In addition to its role in melanin synthesis, MT-2 has also been studied for potential effects on libido, appetite regulation, and energy balance.
➡️ Ideal for skin pigmentation, photoprotection, and melanocortin-mediated metabolic processes.
Key Research Findings
Skin Pigmentation: Stimulates melanin production and promotes an even, UV-independent tanning effect.
Photoprotection: Increased pigmentation may theoretically help protect the skin from UV-induced damage.
Libido & Hypothalamic Effects: Preclinical studies have shown activation of the MC4R receptor, which is associated with libido and energy metabolism.
Appetite Regulation: Interacts with melanocortin signaling pathways involved in hunger and energy expenditure.
Dosage & Application
Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water before use.
Typical research range: 250–1000 µg per application, administered subcutaneously.
Dosage frequency and duration may vary depending on the research design.
Store the reconstituted solution refrigerated and use within 30 days.
