Melanotan II (10 mg) — Research Overview
Melanotan II is a synthetic analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), studied in pigmentation research in the US. It is the primary compound in NuMe’s melanocortin research category.
Mechanism & Research Applications
Melanotan II is investigated as a melanocortin receptor agonist, studied for stimulating melanin production (melanogenesis) and photoprotection pathways. Research interest also extends to energy homeostasis and appetite signalling through melanocortin receptors.
As a well-characterised melanocortin agonist, Melanotan II is a standard research tool for studying pigmentation biology.
