The Dossier

Research Notes

PT-141 is a cyclic heptapeptide and a metabolite of the melanocortin agonist melanotan II. Unlike its parent, it acts through central melanocortin receptors rather than the pigmentation pathway.

It is studied as a reference standard in the melanocortin-signaling literature, of particular interest in neuroendocrine and functional-health models.

Research Focus

  • Melanocortin-receptor (MC4R/MC3R) signaling models
  • Central neuroendocrine-pathway research
  • Functional and libido-behavior models
  • Hypothalamic signaling studies

Mechanism

PT-141 is characterized as an agonist at melanocortin receptors — principally MC4R and MC3R — expressed in hypothalamic and central-nervous-system tissue. Signaling proceeds through Gαs, adenylyl cyclase and cAMP, a pathway distinct from vascular mechanisms.
