Alpha-MSH C-terminal tripeptide with anti-inflammatory properties
These products are intended for laboratory research use only and are not for human consumption. Not for use in food, drug, household, or cosmetic applications. All research should be conducted in accordance with applicable safety guidelines and regulations.
KPV is the C-terminal tripeptide of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH), comprising the sequence Lys-Pro-Val. Research has characterized its anti-inflammatory activity through melanocortin receptor engagement and direct NF-κB pathway modulation, with particular interest in gastrointestinal inflammation models.
Preclinical studies with KPV have demonstrated suppression of pro-inflammatory cytokine production and attenuation of NF-κB signaling. Research models have explored its potential relevance to intestinal inflammation and mucosal immunity.
