Lab Specifications

Overview:
KPV is a tripeptide fragment derived from the naturally occurring alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), studied for its anti-inflammatory and tissue-healing properties. It has gained attention in immunological and dermatological research for its potential to regulate inflammatory pathways and promote epithelial repair.

Mechanism of Action:
KPV exerts its biological activity through interaction with melanocortin receptors, particularly MC1R, which are expressed on various immune and epithelial cells. By modulating cytokine production and suppressing pro-inflammatory mediators such as TNF-α and IL-1β, KPV helps reduce inflammation and oxidative stress. It has also been shown to accelerate wound healing and restore epithelial barrier integrity in preclinical studies.

Research Highlights:

• Demonstrated potent anti-inflammatory effects in models of skin irritation, colitis, and tissue injury.
• Shown to promote epithelial regeneration and wound closure.
• Studied for its ability to reduce oxidative stress and inflammation-related damage.
• Represents a minimal yet highly bioactive peptide sequence derived from α-MSH with strong translational research potential.

Specifications:
Form: Lyophilized powder (research-grade)
Purity: ≥99% (HPLC-tested)
Storage: Store at 2–8 °C in a dry, light-protected container.
