PT-141 (Bremelanotide) – Research Peptide for Libido and Energy Stimulation

Overview

PT-141, also known as Bremelanotide , is a synthetic peptide being studied for its potential effects on sexual stimulation, energy levels, and mood. It acts through the melanocortin system in the brain, fundamentally different from agents that act through blood vessels. In laboratory studies, PT-141 is being studied for its role in neurochemical signaling and its potential influence on sexual motivation and energy restoration.

Features & Benefits (under research)

• Being studied for stimulating libido and sexual arousal
• Possible influence on energy, vitality and general well-being
• Research suggests a central action via the melanocortin receptor system (MC3R/MC4R)
• Non-vascular acting – different from PDE5 inhibitors
• Possible role in research on mood and motivation
• Application in preclinical studies of neurochemical regulation

Mechanism of action

PT-141 acts as a melanocortin receptor agonist , primarily on the MC3R and MC4R receptors in the brain. In research models, this peptide activates neural pathways related to sexual behavior and motivation. Unlike agents that affect blood flow, PT-141 acts on the central nervous system, providing a different route of stimulation.
