Premium Sunless Tanning & Pigmentation Research Peptide Melanotan II (MT-II) is a synthetic analog of the alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone ($\alpha$-MSH). Engineered for high potency and stability, it stimulates melanogenesis to promote deep, even skin pigmentation and UV-free tanning research applications.
Key Highlights
-
Enhanced Pigmentation Efficiency: Stimulates the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, delivering natural-looking pigmentation results.
-
Photoprotection & UV Reduction: Promotes skin darkening with minimal natural sunlight or UV exposure required, supporting UV-damage prevention research.
-
High Stability & Bioactivity: Synthesized with strict sequence fidelity to ensure sustained activity across cellular and receptor assays.
-
Dual Action Profile: In addition to melanogenesis, Melanotan II exhibits interaction with central melanocortin receptors (MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, MC5R) for broader physiological research.
Mechanism of Action
Melanotan II acts as a non-selective agonist of melanocortin receptors:
-
MC1R Activation: Directly binds to Melanocortin 1 Receptors on melanocytes, triggering eumelanin (dark pigment) synthesis.
-
Melanogenesis Pathway: Elevates intracellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) and tyrosinase activity, accelerating the rate of skin darkening.
-
Central Melanocortin Activity: Interacts with MC3R and MC4R in the central nervous system, which are involved in appetite regulation and energy homeostasis.

Keep lyophilized peptides sealed in their original vial, protected from light and humidity, and store at -4°F or colder for optimal long-term stability in research settings; short-term refrigeration at around 39°F suffices for immediate use within weeks, though freezer storage maximizes integrity across extended research timelines.
