PT-141, also known as Bremelanotide, is a synthetic peptide analog derived from the melanocortin receptor agonist Melanotan II. This 10mg lyophilized research compound is supplied in a single vial for laboratory and investigational use only.
PT-141 acts on melanocortin receptors, specifically MC3R and MC4R, distinguishing it from compounds that operate through vascular mechanisms. Researchers have studied this peptide extensively for its unique receptor binding profile and its role in melanocortin signaling pathways.
Research Applications
- Melanocortin receptor signaling pathway studies
- MC3R and MC4R receptor binding and activation research
- Comparative studies with other melanocortin analogs
- Neuropeptide signaling investigations
