Description

KPV (lysine-proline-valine) is the C-terminal tripeptide fragment of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) and a tool compound in inflammation and immune-signaling research. Laboratory investigators study KPV for its anti-inflammatory signaling, modulation of NF-κB and pro-inflammatory cytokine pathways, and melanocortin-related mechanisms in vitro and in preclinical systems. It is examined in gut-epithelial, dermal, and immune-cell models for its influence on inflammatory-response regulation. Supplied for in-vitro and laboratory research only — not for human or veterinary use.

Research FAQ

Compound and research-use information

What is KPV?

KPV is a synthetic tripeptide (lysine-proline-valine) corresponding to the C-terminal fragment of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH). It is supplied for laboratory research use.

What is KPV studied for in the research setting?

KPV is studied in vitro and in preclinical models for research into anti-inflammatory signaling and melanocortin-pathway-related immune modulation. It is used as a reference peptide in immunology research.

What form is Aurevena's KPV supplied in?

KPV is supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. Every batch is tested by independent, accredited U.S. laboratories for purity and identity, with the Certificate of Analysis published on this product page. Store lyophilized peptide cold and protected from light, and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Is KPV intended for human use?

No. KPV is sold by Aurevena strictly for laboratory and research use only. It is not a drug, dietary supplement, cosmetic, or medical device, and is not intended for human or veterinary use, consumption, or for the diagnosis, treatment, cure, or prevention of any disease.
