KPV

KPV – 10mg Research Peptide

α-MSH–Derived Tripeptide (Lys-Pro-Val)

For In Vitro Research Use Only – Not for Human or Animal Use

Product Overview

KPV (Lysine-Proline-Valine) is a short peptide sequence derived from the C-terminal region of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). In laboratory research settings, KPV is studied for its role in inflammatory signaling pathways, epithelial barrier integrity, and cellular stress response mechanisms.

In vitro models frequently utilize KPV to evaluate cytokine modulation, epithelial cell protection, and peptide-based immune response regulation. Due to its small molecular size and stability, it is commonly incorporated into experimental designs involving gastrointestinal, dermatological, and wound-repair cellular systems.

PureLabs KPV is supplied as a high-purity lyophilized powder intended for controlled laboratory experimentation.
