KPV
Tripeptide Anti-Inflammatory Complex | Research Peptide | For Laboratory Use Only
Overview KPV (Lysine–Proline–Valine) is a naturally occurring tripeptide derived from the alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It is widely studied for its potent anti-inflammatory properties, immune-modulating activity, and potential influence on gut health, skin integrity, and systemic inflammatory markers.
Because it is a small, highly stable peptide with minimal complexity, researchers value KPV for its targeted interaction with inflammatory pathways and its potential across multiple biological systems.
