KPV (Lys-Pro-Val) is a synthetic tripeptide derived from the C-terminal sequence (positions 11–13) of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It is widely researched for its potent anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties while lacking the melanotropic (pigmentation) effects of the full-length hormone.

Key Details:

• Sequence: Lys-Pro-Val (KPV)
• Molecular Formula: C₁₆H₃₀N₄O₄
• Molecular Weight: ~342.44 Da

Research Applications: KPV has been investigated for its ability to:

• Inhibit NF-κB and pro-inflammatory cytokine production
• Support gut barrier function and mucosal healing in models of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)
• Promote wound healing, skin repair, and reduction of cutaneous inflammation
• Modulate immune responses in epithelial tissues without activating melanocortin receptors
• Exhibit potential benefits in dermatological conditions, neuroinflammation, and systemic inflammatory models

Its small size and stability make it a valuable tool in inflammation, immunology, and tissue repair research.
