PT-141 (10mg)

The specific chemical structure of PT-141 involves a modified synthetic derivative of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). The chemical structure of PT-141 consists of a chain of amino acids. The sequence is as follows:

AC-Nle-cyclo[Asp-His-D-Phe-Arg-Trp-Lys]-OH

This sequence plays a key role in the peptide’s ability to interact with specific receptors in the body.

Stimulates Sexual Arousal

PT-141, also known as Bremelanotide, has been studied for its ability to stimulate sexual arousal in both males and females. As an agonist for the melanocortin-4 receptor (MC-4R) and melanocortin-1 receptor (MC-1R), PT-141 influences the central nervous system, particularly the pathways related to sexual response. Research of PT-141 demonstrated its potential as a treatment for a lack of sexual desire. The peptide’s action involves activating melanocortin receptors, which play a role in the regulation of sexual function, and it has shown promise in addressing sexual dysfunction by promoting sexual arousal.

Stimulates the Immune System

Beyond its effects on sexual arousal, PT-141 has also been found to stimulate the immune system. The melanocortin receptors, particularly MC-1R, are known to modulate immune responses. Research suggests that PT-141’s interaction with these receptors may have immunomodulatory effects, influencing the body’s immune function. While the exact mechanisms and clinical implications of its impact on the immune system are still areas of ongoing study, the dual action of PT-141 on both sexual arousal and immune response makes it a subject of interest in various medical contexts.
