Melanotan II is a synthetic cyclic peptide analog of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), designed to stimulate melanogenesis in laboratory settings. Laboratory research involving Melanotan II examines its potential effects on pigment production, appetite modulation, and lipid metabolism. Studies indicate that Melanotan II interacts with melanocortin receptors influencing tanning processes, energy homeostasis, and satiety.

Scientific investigations continue to explore Melanotan II’s potential roles in pigmentation regulation, appetite control, and metabolic pathways in controlled laboratory environments.
