KPV

KPV is a short tripeptide fragment of α-MSH (sequence: Lys-Pro-Val) used in research for its anti-inflammatory signaling effects, especially in skin and gut inflammation models.

• KPV: α-MSH–derived 3-amino-acid peptide (Lys-Pro-Val).

• Primary use: Preclinical research on inflammatory pathway modulation (including NF-κB–related signaling).

• Research focus: Epithelial/skin and GI inflammation biology, cytokine signaling, and tissue-response models.
