- Published receptor-binding assays at MC1RโMC5R subtypes.
- In-vitro melanocyte cell-line cAMP assay data.
Overview
MT-2 (Melanotan II) is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide non-selective melanocortin-receptor agonist. Supplied as a lyophilised powder for in-vitro research use only.
Mechanism of Action
Reported in published in-vitro studies as a non-selective melanocortin-receptor ligand active on MC1R, MC3R, MC4R and MC5R receptor-binding assays. Not intended for human or veterinary use.
Research Effects
Non-Selective Melanocortin Binding
Extensive ResearchCharacterised in receptor-binding assays as an agonist of MC1R, MC3R, MC4R and MC5R receptor subtypes.
cAMP Cell Assays
Moderate ResearchPublished melanocyte cell-line studies report effects on adenylyl-cyclase / cAMP pathway activity.
Stability Profile
Moderate ResearchCyclic structure characterised in published studies as conferring greater metabolic stability than linear melanocortin analogues.
