KPV is a short tripeptide fragment (Lys-Pro-Val) derived from the C-terminal end of the α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) molecule. In laboratory research models, KPV has been studied for its potential role in modulating inflammatory signaling pathways, including interactions related to cytokine activity and immune response regulation. Due to these observed properties, the peptide has attracted attention in experimental settings focused on inflammation, immune signaling, and cellular response mechanisms.

This compound is intended strictly for laboratory and research purposes only.
