PT-141

PT-141 (Bremelanotide) is a synthetic cyclic peptide belonging to the melanocortin peptide family. Originally developed as an analog of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), PT-141 has become a widely studied research compound due to its selective interaction with melanocortin receptor subtypes, particularly MC3R and MC4R.

In laboratory settings, PT-141 is commonly utilized as a tool for investigating melanocortin receptor signaling, central nervous system pathways, neuroendocrine regulation, and receptor pharmacology. Its unique mechanism has made it a valuable compound for researchers studying peptide-receptor interactions and related cellular signaling processes.

PT-141 is typically supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder to support long-term stability prior to reconstitution for laboratory research. As with all research peptides, proper storage, handling, and experimental protocols are essential to maintain compound integrity.
