KPV 10MG | Targeted Anti-Inflammatory Tripeptide

A potent alpha-MSH derivative studied for its role in modulating the immune response and resolving inflammation.

KPV is a naturally occurring tripeptide that represents the C-terminal fragment of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). In research, KPV is distinguished by its profound anti-inflammatory properties without the pigmentary effects of full-length MSH. It is a primary subject for studies investigating inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), dermatitis, and the inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

Research Benchmarks: Cytokine Modulation

  • NF-κB Inhibition: Studying the blockade of the master switch for inflammatory gene expression.
  • Antimicrobial Research: Investigating KPV’s potential direct and indirect antimicrobial effects.
  • Dermal Recovery: Researching the reduction of edema and inflammatory markers in skin tissue models.
