❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is Melanotan 2?

A: Melanotan 2 (MT-2) is a synthetic analogue of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) used in pre-clinical research to study melanocortin receptor activation, melanogenesis pathways, photoprotective mechanisms, and metabolic regulation in laboratory models.

Q: How does MT-2 differ from MT-1?

A: While both are α-MSH analogues, MT-2 exhibits broader melanocortin receptor affinity (MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, MC5R) compared to MT-1's more selective MC1R binding. This makes MT-2 particularly useful for multi-receptor signaling research and metabolic pathway investigations.

Q: How should this product be stored?

A: Store lyophilized powder in refrigerator for up to 1 year maximum. Once reconstituted, store in refrigerator and use within 4-5 weeks maximum per your research protocol.
