PT-141 10mg
PT-141, commonly referred to as Bremelanotide, is a heavily modified synthetic derivative of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. It has been tested in clinical trials for treating both male and female hypoactive sexual desire disorder and acute hemorrhage. PT-141 functions as an agonist for melanocortin-4 (MC-4R) and melanocortin-1 (MC-1R) receptors, promoting sexual arousal and stimulating the immune system.

What is PT-141?
PT-141, also known as Bremelanotide, is sometimes referred to as the "female Viagra" due to its potential in treating female hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD). It binds primarily to melanocortin 4 receptors (MC-4R) and melanocortin 1 receptors (MC-1R). This peptide is a derivative of another synthetic melanocortin, melanotan 2 (MT-2), and has been shown to effectively promote sexual arousal and enhance immune function.
Key Functions and Benefits
Sexual Arousal: Promotes sexual arousal by acting on melanocortin receptors, beneficial for treating hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD).
Immune System Stimulation: Enhances immune function through its action on melanocortin receptors.
Acute Hemorrhage Treatment: Investigated for its potential to treat acute hemorrhage.
Mechanisms of Action
PT-141’s primary mechanisms of action include:
Melanocortin Receptor Agonist: Acts as an agonist for MC-4R and MC-1R, which are involved in sexual arousal and immune system regulation.
Sexual Arousal Enhancement: Binds to melanocortin receptors to promote sexual desire and arousal.
Immune Stimulation: Stimulates the immune system by enhancing the activity of melanocortin receptors.
Unique Characteristics
PT-141 is unique in its dual ability to enhance sexual desire and stimulate the immune system. Its specific action on melanocortin receptors differentiates it from other treatments for sexual dysfunction and positions it as a versatile peptide with multiple therapeutic applications.
