PT-141 (also known as
Bremelanotide) is a synthetic
research peptide derived from the α-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (
α-MSH).
Within laboratory research, PT-141 is applied to study the
role of melanocortin receptors particularly the
MC3R and
MC4R receptors, which are involved in
neurotransmission, energy homeostasis, and signaling mechanisms in vitro. This peptide is produced according to strict quality standards and verified via
High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) to ensure a purity of ≥ 99 %.
Each batch is suitable for controlled biochemical and neurophysiological research environments.
