Melanotan II (MT-2) is a cyclic lactam analogue of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, designed as a non-selective agonist at melanocortin receptors (notably MC1R, MC3R, MC4R). It is widely studied for its role in melanogenesis, appetite-regulation pathways and sexual-behaviour signalling in preclinical models. Supplied as lyophilised powder for in vitro laboratory research only.
