Melanotan 2 is a synthetic cyclic peptide analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), designed to activate multiple melanocortin receptors, including MC1R and MC4R. In research settings, it has been studied for its dual role in promoting melanogenesis (skin pigmentation) and influencing libido and arousal signaling in the central nervous system.
Unlike Melanotan 1, Melanotan 2 is known to have broader receptor activity, which has made it a subject of interest in studies on sexual function, photoprotection, and neural signaling.
