Description
A single-component research material supplied for controlled research environments. Suitable for studies involving melanocortin receptor pathway characterization (e.g., MC1R/MC4R models) and method development in model systems.Not for human use.
Documentation & Quality Assurance
Each lot is sourced through our verified global supply chain with emphasis on traceability and quality control.These documents are reviewed internally and displayed as they become available. Independent third-party testing is also performed on select lots to confirm identity, purity, and alignment with our internal specifications.
Important Notice
This product is intended for laboratory research use only. It is not intended for human or veterinary use, and must not be used for diagnostic, therapeutic, or clinical purposes.
This material is not a drug, medical device, or dietary supplement, and has not been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Quality & Manufacturing
All materials are sourced from carefully vetted domestic and international manufacturing partners who follow quality systems consistent with ISO and cGMP principles. Each supplier is reviewed for reliability, documentation integrity, and transparency in testing.
We require a verified purity of 99% or higher and perform independent third-party spot testing to confirm that select lots meet our internal standards for identity, purity, and composition. Where available, endotoxin testing results are included on Certificates of Analysis to verify laboratory purity; their inclusion is for research quality assessment only and does not imply suitability for human or veterinary use.
All research materials are sealed for integrity and packaged for stability during storage and transport from manufacturing through final delivery.

Storage Instructions
All products from House of Compounds are manufactured using a lyophilization (freeze-drying) process. This method is designed to maintain product integrity and allows vials to remain stable during shipping for approximately 3–4 months.
Once a vial is reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, it should be stored in the refrigerator to help maintain stability. Under these conditions, reconstituted material is generally considered stable for up to 30 days.
Lyophilization is a dehydration technique in which compounds are frozen and then exposed to low pressure. This causes the water in the vial to sublimate directly from solid to gas, leaving behind a stable, crystalline white structure. This powder can be kept at room temperature until reconstitution.
Upon receipt, products should be stored away from heat and light. For short-term use, refrigeration at approximately 4°C (39°F) is suitable. For long-term storage (several months to years), vials may be placed in a freezer at approximately -80°C (-112°F). Freezing is the preferred method for preserving product stability over extended periods.

Peer-reviewed laboratory studies investigating melanocortin receptor peptides
Multiple metabolic signals in the CeA regulate feeding: The role of AMPK.
However, the signaling pathway by which ghrelin and fasting induce feeding is unknown. However, whether the expression and activation of AMPK in CeA could be one of the intracellular signaling activated in response to ghrelin and fasting eliciting food intake is unknown.

However, the molecular mechanism underlying POMC/α-MSH secretion remains unclear. Moreover, administration of low-dose melanotan-2, an α-MSH receptor (MC4R) agonist, decreased food intake per body weight in Caps2-KO mice; no such effect was observed in the wildtype mice.

This study aims to delineate the anti-neoplastic efficacy and mechanism of MTII using the B16-F10 melanoma model in vitro and in vivo. Histological analysis revealed that MTII therapy induced apoptosis while inhibiting the proliferation and neovaluarization in melanoma tissues.

The melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) is a G protein-coupled receptor involved in food intake and energy expenditure regulation. MC4R activation modifies neuronal activity but the molecular mechanisms by which this regulation occurs remain unclear.

OBJECTIVE: The medial hypothalamus mediates leptin-induced glucose uptake in peripheral tissues, and brain melanocortin receptors (MCRs) mediate certain central effects of leptin. However, the contributions of the leptin receptor and MCRs in individual medial hypothalamic nuclei to regulation of peripheral glucose uptake have remained unclear.
