- Melanotan II is an analog of the alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), a natural hormone involved in maintaining energy balance, stimulating melanin synthesis, and promoting sexual functions. Originally developed in the 1980s, after observing rodents administered with α-MSH began to be sexually aroused and the darkening of the skin persisted. Melanotan II is a variant of afamelanotide that produces eumelanin in the skin, which has been associated in research with boosting antioxidant activities, improving DNA repair processes, and regulating inflammation.
