This listing specifies 10 mg. The selected reference examines receptor signaling in a defined cell-based system.
Melanotan II is investigated as a melanocortin receptor agonist. Cell-based studies examine the duration of MC4R-associated cAMP signaling and differences between natural and synthetic agonists.
The researchers compared the timing of cAMP responses to natural and synthetic MC4R agonists, including melanotan II, after compound removal from the culture medium.
