KPV

KPV – Research Tripeptide (Lys-Pro-Val)

KPV is a laboratory-grade tripeptide composed of lysine (K), proline (P), and valine (V). Derived from the natural sequence of α-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (α-MSH), this reagent is examined in in-vitro settings for its relevance to anti-inflammatory signaling, immunoregulatory pathways, and peptide receptor interactions.

KPV is produced under strict quality-control protocols and verified by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) to confirm a purity level of ≥99%. It is supplied as a reagent for controlled biochemical, molecular, and cellular in-vitro research environments.
