Description
Overview
KPV (Lysine-Proline-Valine) is a naturally occurring tripeptide fragment derived from the C-terminal sequence of
alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It has been the subject of in vitro research for its potential
anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and epithelial protective properties.
Experimental studies suggest that KPV may modulate inflammatory signaling pathways, enhance epithelial barrier
function, and reduce pro-inflammatory cytokine expression in cell culture systems. These properties have made KPV
a point of interest in laboratory models related to gut health, dermatological research, and wound-healing
investigations.
