Research Applications

Research use: PT-141 (bremelanotide), an active metabolite of melanotan II, is a selective melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) agonist used to probe central MC4R signaling.
Studied in models of female sexual arousal disorder and HSDD to investigate melanocortinergic regulation of sexual behavior.
Used in erectile function research to examine central (non-peripheral vasodilatory) pathways of sexual response.
Serves as a pharmacological tool to dissect MC4R-mediated effects on appetite, energy balance, and blood pressure regulation.

MT2 metabolite, selective MC4R agonist, FDA approved for female HSDD
