KPV

KPV (Lys-Pro-Val) is a research tripeptide derived from alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), studied for its interaction with melanocortin receptor pathways involved in inflammatory modulation. These pathways play a role in immune regulation, inflammatory signaling, and cellular stress responses. In research models, KPV has been associated with changes in pro-inflammatory cytokine expression, NF-κB signaling, and mucosal barrier function, making it a compound of interest in immunology and cellular biology studies.
