KPV (Lysine-Proline-Valine) Research Peptide Product Information

This is a specialized research product of KPV (Lysine-Proline-Valine), a naturally occurring tripeptide fragment, strictly intended For In Vitro Research Use Only — Not for Human or Veterinary Use.

Description & Application 🔬

  • Description: KPV is a tripeptide fragment derived from the C-terminal sequence of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone ($\alpha$-MSH). It is a focus of in vitro research for its potential anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and epithelial protective properties.

  • Research Focus: Studies suggest KPV may modulate inflammatory signaling pathways, enhance barrier function in epithelial cell cultures, and reduce pro-inflammatory cytokine expression. It is a compound of interest for:

    • Modulating inflammation in epithelial and dermal cell cultures.

    • Supporting barrier function in gut and skin models.

    • Antimicrobial activity in cell-based research.

    • Promoting wound repair and epithelial regeneration.

    • Reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine production.
