What Is PT-141?
PT-141 is a synthetic melanocortin peptide with a conformationally restricted cyclic structure.
The molecule belongs to the melanocortin peptide family and is structurally related to alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone analogues. Its cyclic design helps create a stable and clearly defined molecular profile for receptor-binding and signalling research.
PT-141 is also known by its scientific name, Bremelanotide. The two names refer to the same active peptide compound.
Alternative Product Names
PT-141 may be identified under several names:
- PT-141
- PT141
- Bremelanotide
- Bremelanotide acetate
- Cyclic melanocortin peptide
- Melanocortin receptor agonist
Researchers should always confirm the exact chemical form and batch specifications using the product label and applicable analytical documentation.
Molecular Structure
Bremelanotide is a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide with an acetylated amino terminus and a free acid at the carboxyl terminus.
Its peptide structure is commonly represented as:
Ac-Nle-cyclo-(Asp–His–D-Phe–Arg–Trp–Lys–OH)
Important structural characteristics include:
- Seven-amino-acid cyclic peptide structure
- Lactam-bridged molecular design
- Acetylated amino terminus
- Free carboxyl terminus
- Modified amino-acid components
- Conformationally restricted structure
- Broad melanocortin receptor activity
- Distinct analytical profile
These characteristics make PT-141 particularly useful for cyclic peptide, receptor-binding and structure–activity research.
Melanocortin Receptor Research
PT-141 is studied as a non-selective agonist of several melanocortin receptor subtypes.
Relevant receptor systems include:
The relative activity of PT-141 differs between receptor subtypes, with MC1R and MC4R representing particularly important areas of scientific interest.
Potential research applications include:
- Melanocortin receptor binding
- Aktivace receptoru
- Interakce ligand-receptor
- Signalizace receptoru spřaženého s G-proteinem
- Cyklické AMP dráhy
- Intracelulární signální transdukce
- Internalizace receptorů
- Desenzibilizace receptorů
- Vztahy mezi koncentrací a odezvou
- Srovnávací farmakologie receptorů
MC4R and Central Signalling Research
The melanocortin 4 receptor, known as MC4R, is expressed in multiple regions of the central nervous system.
This makes PT-141 particularly relevant for research involving:
- Central melanocortin signalling
- Hypothalamic receptor activity
- Neuroendokrinní komunikace
- Neural GPCR pathways
- Behaviour-related signalling models
- Autonomic communication
- Dopamine-associated research pathways
- Receptor-expression analysis
- Central ligand–receptor interactions
- Comparative MC4R agonist studies
PT-141 is frequently used as a research reference for examining how melanocortin receptor activation may influence centrally mediated signalling.
MC1R and Melanocyte Research
MC1R is strongly associated with melanocyte biology and pigmentation-related signalling.
PT-141 may therefore also be relevant for laboratory research involving:
- MC1R receptor activation
- Melanocyte signalling
- Melanin-expression pathways
- Pigmentation-related cellular models
- Selektivita receptoru
- Comparative melanocortin ligands
- Cellular concentration responses
- Melanocyte gene expression
- GPCR signalling in pigment cells
- Receptor-mediated cellular communication
These applications describe laboratory research pathways and do not represent cosmetic claims.
Neuroendokrinní výzkum
Melanocortin receptors contribute to communication between the central nervous system and endocrine pathways.
Potential PT-141 research areas include:
- Neuroendokrinní signalizace
- Hypothalamic pathway research
- Central receptor activation
- Neural transmitter interactions
- Hormone-associated signalling
- Behavioural response models
- Autonomic nervous system research
- Receptor-mediated cellular communication
- Comparative neuropeptide pharmacology
- Central nervous system peptide research
Experimental results can differ depending on the receptor subtype, cell type, concentration, administration model and analytical method.
Cyclic Peptide Research
The conformationally restricted structure of PT-141 makes it especially relevant for peptide design and molecular engineering.
Potential research topics include:
- Peptide cyclisation
- Lactam bridge formation
- Conformational restriction
- Molekulární stabilita
- Enzymatic degradation
- Receptor-binding optimisation
- Modified amino-acid analysis
- Farmakologie peptidů
- Vztahy mezi strukturou a aktivitou
- Comparative linear and cyclic peptides
- Molecular modelling
- Synthetic peptide chemistry
Researchers may compare PT-141 with Melanotan II, alpha-MSH or other melanocortin ligands to examine how small structural differences influence receptor activity.
PT-141 Versus Melanotan II
PT-141 and Melanotan II are closely related cyclic melanocortin peptides, but they should not be treated as identical compounds.
