Melanocortin analog

PT-141

PT-141 is a cyclic heptapeptide analog of alpha-MSH, structurally derived from Melanotan-2 by replacing the terminal amide group with a carboxylic acid. In research literature, it binds to melanocortin receptors with a reported preference for MC4R and MC3R. It has been studied in models of central melanocortin signaling in rodent studies.

Laboratory handling

Reconstitution: Laboratory procedure: allow the closed vial to reach room temperature, disinfect the septum and slowly transfer the diluent against the inner wall of the vial. Do not shake; gently swirl the vial until fully dissolved. Record the volume, diluent and date in the batch log.
Storage: Sealed vial of lyophilized material: store at −20 °C, protected from light and moisture. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles of reconstituted material; aliquot when the experimental design permits.
Protective equipment: Handle in a clean work area with a lab coat, nitrile gloves and eye protection. Dispose of vials, tips and sharps according to the laboratory waste procedure.
