⸺ Overview
About Melanotan II
Melanotan II is a synthetic analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. It binds melanocortin receptors on melanocytes, stimulating melanin synthesis.
⸺ Mechanism of Action
How it works
Melanotan II activates melanocortin receptors (MC1R and MC4R).
⸺ Research
Areas of study
Pigmentation pathways
Animal studies show increased eumelanin production.
Melanocortin receptor signalling
Research explores downstream signalling at MC1R and MC4R.
Behavioural studies
Preclinical models have looked at central effects on appetite and behaviour.
