RESEARCH

Melanocortin Receptors, Melanotropic Peptides and Penile Erection
Cuellar FM, McVary KT. · Current Pharmaceutical Design · 2009
Reviews Melanotan II as a synthetic cyclic heptapeptide melanocortin receptor agonist, noting its core His-Phe-Arg-Trp sequence shared with ACTH and alpha-MSH drives androgen-dependent pro-erectile and pigmentation effects.
The Melanocortin Agonist, Melanotan II, Enhances Proceptive Sexual Behaviors in the Female Rat
Rössler AS, Pfaus JG, Kia HK, et al. · Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior · 2006
Demonstrates Melanotan II significantly enhances proceptive sexual behaviours in female rats via central melanocortin receptor activation, providing preclinical behavioural evidence for its CNS mechanism.

Melanocortin Receptor Agonists, Penile Erection, and Sexual Motivation: Human Studies With Melanotan II
Wessells H, Levine N, Hadley ME, et al. · International Journal of Impotence Research · 2000
Early human studies demonstrating Melanotan II induces penile erection and increased sexual motivation in male subjects, foundational research that led to the development of the refined analogue PT-141.
