About this compound
KPV 10 mg - Anti inflammatory Alpha MSH Fragment for Immune and Gut Health Research
- Composition: 10 mg KPV peptide (alpha MSH fragment) lyophilized powder
- Category: Peptide
- Form: Vial with freeze dried powder
What is KPV?
KPV is a tripeptide fragment of the alpha melanocyte stimulating hormone (alpha MSH), consisting of the amino acids Lysine Proline Valine.
It is widely studied for its strong anti inflammatory, antimicrobial and immunomodulatory properties, especially in research focused on gut integrity, skin inflammation and immune balance.
In preclinical studies, KPV has shown potential to reduce inflammatory cytokines, support epithelial barrier function and modulate immune signaling pathways.
Ideal for research related to inflammation control, gut barrier support and dermatological immune responses.
Key Research Findings
Anti Inflammatory Activity: Shown to downregulate key inflammatory cytokines such as TNF alpha, IL 1 beta and IL 6.
Gut Integrity: Investigated for its ability to support epithelial tight junctions and reduce colitis markers in research models.
Immune Modulation: May help balance immune pathways through melanocortin receptor interactions.
Antimicrobial Effects: Demonstrated inhibitory activity against certain bacteria and inflammatory skin conditions.
Skin and Tissue Support: Explored for its potential in soothing irritated or damaged tissue.
Storage Instructions
- Store at 2 to 8 C
- Protect from light and moisture
- Do not freeze
- Avoid temperature fluctuations
Why Choose KPV?
KPV is one of the most promising alpha MSH derived peptides for inflammation and immune system research.
