$350
PT-141, also known as Bremelanotide, is a peptide being studied for its potential to support sexual health by acting on the nervous system pathways involved in arousal and desire. It offers a natural approach that may help improve libido and sexual response.
MOA
- Melanocortin Receptor Activation:
- PT-141 is a selective melanocortin receptor agonist that primarily targets melanocortin-3 (MC3R) and melanocortin-4 (MC4R) receptors located within the central nervous system. Activation of these receptors modulates neuroendocrine circuits involved in sexual desire and arousal.
- Central Nervous System Pathways:
- Unlike phosphodiesterase inhibitors that act via peripheral vasodilation, PT-141 operates centrally by influencing hypothalamic pathways responsible for sexual motivation and behavior. This mechanism directly enhances sexual drive independent of vascular function.
- Dopaminergic and Oxytocinergic Modulation:
- Stimulation of MC4R receptors enhances dopaminergic neurotransmission and promotes the release of oxytocin—both critical mediators of sexual arousal, bonding, and reward. This neurochemical modulation amplifies sexual desire and positive affective responses.
- Autonomic and Neuroendocrine Regulation:
- PT-141 influences sympathetic nervous system output and integrates neuroendocrine signals that coordinate arousal responses. These effects result in heightened sexual readiness and improved central activation of arousal networks.
- Distinct Mechanistic Profile:
- Through its central melanocortin-mediated mechanism, PT-141 provides a unique therapeutic pathway for addressing hypoactive sexual desire and arousal disorders. Its independence from nitric oxide–mediated vasodilation makes it effective in both male and female patients, including those unresponsive to PDE5 inhibitors.
