KPV 10MG

KPV – Research Peptide

For Research Purposes Only

Description

KPV is a naturally occurring tripeptide fragment of alpha-melanocyte–stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It has been widely studied for its potential roles in inflammation modulation, epithelial barrier support, and immune signaling in laboratory environments.

In experimental research, KPV has demonstrated the ability to influence cytokine activity, regulate NF-κB pathways, and support tissue homeostasis. Its compact peptide structure makes it valuable in studies relating to skin biology, gastrointestinal health, and peptide-based immunomodulation.

Each vial contains 10 mg of high-purity lyophilized KPV powder for controlled laboratory research.

Key Research Findings

• Inflammatory Modulation: Shown in research models to down-regulate pro-inflammatory cytokines and mediate NF-κB activity.
• Epithelial Barrier Support: Investigated for its ability to promote tight-junction stability and maintain epithelial integrity.
• Immune Regulation: Demonstrated to influence local immune responses, including macrophage and innate-cell activity.
• Tissue Recovery Potential: Explored for its role in cellular healing mechanisms across skin and mucosal tissue models.
• Melanocortin Pathway Activity: Derived from α-MSH, engages melanocortin signaling without affecting pigmentation pathways.
