Melanotan-2 [Peptide] – Product Details
What is Melanotan-2 Peptide?
Melanotan-2 (MT-2) is a synthetic analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), a peptide hormone naturally produced in the body. MT-2 is specifically designed to stimulate melanogenesis, the process by which melanin is produced in the skin. Melanin is the pigment responsible for skin, hair, and eye color.
In research settings, Melanotan-2 is studied for its potential to induce skin darkening (tanning) by promoting melanin production. Researchers are interested in understanding its mechanisms of action, potential applications in photoprotection, and any associated side effects.
