KPV 10mg
KPV (Lys-Pro-Val) is a tripeptide derived from the C-terminal end of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It has been studied extensively for its potent anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and gut-protective properties, making it a compelling subject in immunology and gastrointestinal research.
Key Research Areas
1. Anti-Inflammatory Activity
KPV has demonstrated the ability to inhibit pro-inflammatory cytokines and signalling pathways, including NF-κB, reducing systemic and localised inflammation at the cellular level.
2. Gut Health and Mucosal Protection
Research suggests KPV may support intestinal barrier integrity, reduce mucosal inflammation, and protect against colitis-related damage — making it a focus in gastrointestinal research models.
3. Antimicrobial Properties
KPV has shown activity against certain bacterial and fungal pathogens, with potential applications in infection-related research.
4. Wound Healing Support
By modulating inflammatory responses and supporting tissue repair pathways, KPV is studied for its role in accelerating wound healing and reducing scar formation.
Why KPV is Studied
- Potent localised and systemic anti-inflammatory effects
- Gut mucosal protection and barrier support
- Antimicrobial activity against select pathogens
- Tissue repair and wound healing modulation
- Well-tolerated profile in research models
