2.Description:

Melanotan II is in the class of alphamelanocyte-stimulating hormone mimetics. Alpha-MSH is produced in the pituitary, and activates alpha-melanocyte receptors. MT-II works in the same way.

There are a number of subtypes of alpha-melanocyte receptors (MC1-5.) Melanotan II is generally non-selective and activates multiple types. Activation of the MC1 receptor promotes skin pigmentation, while activation of the MC4 receptor can enhance tendency to penile erection.

Melanotan II is an effective injectable peptide product to enhance ability to tan. Dosing is typically 0.5 to 1.0 mg/day, and the total amount needed for good effect is typically 30-40 mg, though for individuals of medium darkness already, it may be as low as 10 mg for significant effect. MT-II can also be used to enhance tendency to penile erection, but frequency of such use needs to be limited to avoid excessive total effect on skin pigmentation.



3.Application:

Melanotan 2 is a man-made version of alpha melanocyte stimulating hormone, a melanocortin peptide hormone. Melanotan 2 was first synthesized by researchers at the University of Arizona for melanogenesis, and to increase libido effects in men. Melanotan 2 mimics melanogenesis and UV-protective effects of Melanotan 1. However, recent research evidences suggest aphrodisiac effects of Melanotan 2. Due to protective effects against harmful UV rays, Melanotan 2 is being studied as a potential prophylaxis against melanoma skin cancer.

Melanotan products are purchased via the Internet and have three main formulations . Melanotan I increases melanogenesis and eumelanin content to produce sunless tanning. Melanotan II also increases skin pigmentation but also produces spontaneous penile erections and sexual stimulation.
