MT-2 (Melanotan II) is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide analog of α-MSH with broader melanocortin receptor activity than MT-1, exhibiting affinity for MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, and MC5R. Research has used it as a pharmacological tool to investigate melanocortin receptor pharmacology, with studies examining its effects on melanogenesis, energy regulation, and sexual response pathways mediated through central MC4R signaling.

Solvent Preparation
