Product Overview

KPV (Lysine-Proline-Valine) is a tripeptide fragment of the melanocortin hormone α-MSH and is studied for its potent anti-inflammatory and immune-regulating properties in epithelial tissues. It does not stimulate melanogenesis, making it a favorable candidate for research into localized inflammation control without pigmentary effects. Research shows that KPV interacts with melanocortin receptors (MC1R) to inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, making it of interest in models related to:

Inflammatory bowel conditions

Dermatological inflammation

Wound healing and epithelial regeneration

Applications in Research

Investigation of mucosal inflammation and gut epithelial healing

Research on cytokine suppression and immune signaling

Models of topical or systemic inflammation control

Epithelial barrier recovery in skin or GI tract

Storage & Handling: Store lyophilized peptide at -20°C in a sealed, dry, light-protected vial. Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water under sterile lab conditions. Store reconstituted solution refrigerated and use promptly. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
