For Research Purposes Only
Melanotan II (Melanotan 2) is a synthetic peptide analog of the naturally occurring human hormone α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It was originally developed to help stimulating the body's tanning response without sun exposure. It has since gained attention for its additional effects, including increased libido and potential fat loss.
Mechanism of Action
MC1R Activation:
Stimulates melanogenesis in melanocytes, increasing the production of melanin (the pigment responsible for skin color).
Leads to skin darkening/tanning.
MC4R and MC3R Activation:
Associated with appetite suppression and libido enhancement.
MC4R plays a major role in sexual function, which explains the pro-erectile effects.
MC5R Activation:
May influence sebum production and immune modulation, though less studied.
✅ Potential Benefits
Tanning (Melanogenesis) :Stimulates MC1R
May reduce need for UV exposure
Appetite Suppression : MC4R/MC3R-related
Observed in some users
Erectile Dysfunction Help
MC4R-mediated
Increases spontaneous erections
Libido Enhancement
Central melanocortin system
Both sexes report heightened desire
Photoprotection: Increased melanin offers UV protection. Not a substitute for sunscreen.
