Peptide Class: Melanocortin Receptor Agonist / Neuroactive Research Peptide
OVERVIEW
PT-141, also known as Bremelanotide, is a synthetic peptide derived from the melanocortin peptide family. It is structurally related to α-MSH (alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone) and is studied for its effects on central nervous system signaling pathways.
PT-141 is primarily researched for its interaction with melanocortin receptors, particularly in areas of the brain associated with motivation, reward, and neuroendocrine activity. Unlike some peptides that act peripherally, PT-141 is studied for its centrally mediated mechanisms.
In laboratory environments, PT-141 is explored in models related to neurological signaling, behavioral pathways, and receptor-mediated activity.
POTENTIAL RESEARCH BENEFITS
PT-141 is commonly studied for its potential role in:
Neuroactive Signaling
Investigated for its effects on central nervous system pathways and receptor activation.
Melanocortin System Research
Studied for its interaction with melanocortin receptors (MC receptors).
Behavioral Pathways
Researched in models examining motivation, reward, and behavioral responses.
Neuroendocrine Activity
Explored for its influence on hormone signaling pathways in the brain.
Receptor Activation Studies
Examined for selective activation of melanocortin receptor subtypes.
MECHANISM OF ACTIONS
PT-141 is believed to function as a melanocortin receptor agonist that primarily targets receptors in the central nervous system.
Research suggests it may:
Activate melanocortin receptors (primarily MC3R and MC4R)
Influence dopamine-related signaling pathways
Modulate neuroendocrine responses
Affect central nervous system activity related to behavior
Interact with hypothalamic signaling pathways
Because of these mechanisms, PT-141 is frequently studied in neurobiology and receptor signaling research.

STORAGE:
To maintain product stability and quality:
Store the lyophilized peptide at -20°C for long-term storage.
Short-term storage may be maintained at 2–8°C (refrigerated).
Keep the vial dry, sealed, and protected from light.
Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles, as this may reduce peptide stability.
Once reconstituted, solutions should be stored refrigerated and used within a short timeframe according to laboratory protocols.
For Research Use Only
