Product Description
PT-141 (Bremelanotide) is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide and an analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It functions as a non-selective agonist of the melanocortin receptors, specifically targeting the MC3 and MC4 receptors located within the central nervous system.
In research environments, PT-141 is utilized to study the neurobiological pathways regulated by the melanocortin system. Laboratory investigations focus on the receptor binding affinities of PT-141 and its downstream intracellular signaling cascades, providing insights into the neuroendocrine regulation of various physiological and behavioral responses in experimental models.
Research Applications
- Investigation of melanocortin receptor (MC3/MC4) agonism
- Studies on neuroendocrine signaling pathways
- Research on the biochemical mechanisms of the central melanocortin system
