Quanta Pharma Melanotan 2 (MT2) 10mg is a high-purity synthetic peptide analogue of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH). This lyophilised vial from Quanta Pharma is manufactured to pharmaceutical-grade standards for research into melanogenesis, pigmentation pathways, and photoprotection. MT2 activates melanocortin receptors (primarily MC1R) to stimulate melanin production in skin cells.

How Quanta Pharma MT2 Works

Quanta Pharma MT2

is a cyclic heptapeptide analogue of the naturally occurring alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It binds to melanocortin receptors, primarily MC1R, which are found on melanocytes in the skin. This binding triggers a cascade that increases the production of eumelanin, the brown-black pigment responsible for skin colour.

Unlike natural α-MSH which has a very short half-life,

Quanta Pharma MT2

has been structurally modified to resist enzymatic degradation, giving it a much longer duration of action. This makes it particularly useful for research applications requiring sustained receptor activation.

Quanta Pharma MT2 vs Melanotan 1

Melanotan 1

(afamelanotide) is a linear peptide with higher selectivity for MC1R receptors.

Quanta Pharma MT2

is a cyclic peptide with broader receptor affinity, activating MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, and MC5R. This broader activity profile makes MT2 more versatile for research into the full melanocortin system, though it also means effects beyond pigmentation may be observed in studies.

💧 Reconstitution Guide

Recommended:

Add 1-2ml of bacteriostatic water to the 10mg vial.

With 1ml:

Each 0.1ml (10 units on insulin syringe) = 1mg MT2

With 2ml:

Each 0.1ml (10 units on insulin syringe) = 0.5mg MT2

Storage after reconstitution:

Refrigerate at 2-8°C. Use within 30 days.
