Product Overview

Melanotan 2 (MT2) is a synthetic peptide analogue of the naturally occurring alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). MT2 is widely studied for its ability to stimulate melanogenesis, the process responsible for skin pigmentation and tanning, by activating melanocortin receptors, particularly MC1R. In research models, MT2 has demonstrated additional effects, including:

• Enhanced skin pigmentation (tanning) via melanogenesis

• Photoprotection against UV radiation

• Appetite suppression and metabolic regulation

• Lipolytic (fat-reducing) effects

• Libido enhancement (noted as a side effect at higher doses)

• Potential immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties

• Influence on glucose and cholesterol metabolism

MT2 acts as a non-selective agonist of several melanocortin receptors (MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, MC5R), contributing to its diverse physiological effects.

Why Mannitol is Included

Mannitol is added to the peptide formulation for several essential reasons:

• Enhances peptide stability and preservation by protecting against moisture-induced degradation.

• Supports the lyophilization process, maintaining peptide structure and function.

• Improves solubility, which is crucial for accurate dosing and effective use in research.

• Provides visual confirmation of the peptide’s presence, aiding in precise handling and dispensing.

Important Notice

• This product is intended strictly for research purposes only. It is not for human consumption, therapeutic, or diagnostic use in humans or animals.

Reconstitution Guidance

For optimal results and to maintain peptide integrity:

• Use only recommended solvents (e.g., bacteriostatic or sterile water).

• Add solvent gently to the vial to minimize peptide damage.

• Allow the peptide to dissolve naturally; avoid vigorous shaking.

• Store reconstituted peptide in a refrigerator (2–8°C) and use within the recommended timeframe.
