Product information
$85.99
Product description
KPV (Lysine-Proline-Valine) is a synthetic tripeptide fragment derived from the C-terminus of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It has been studied in laboratory settings for its role in immune signaling pathways and cellular communication.
Research in non-human models has explored KPV’s interaction with immune cells and signaling proteins in environments associated with inflammation and oxidative stress. These studies are preliminary and intended to advance understanding of basic biological mechanisms. Requires reconstitution before use.

How does KPV work?
KPV is a tripeptide derived from α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) that has been studied in scientific settings for its role in regulating inflammatory responses and immune system activity in non-human models.
Research
Research involving mammalian models has explored how KPV may influence certain biological processes: 1.Cytokine Response-Laboratory studies suggest KPV may affect the production of signaling molecules involved in inflammation. 2.Immune Modulation-Investigations have observed KPV's interaction with immune cells such as macrophages and T cells. 3.Melanocortin Pathways-KPV has been shown to activate specific receptors in controlled experiments, contributing to research into inflammation regulation.
Preclinical studies have examined KPV in the context of: Digestive tract balance, joint and connective tissue function, skin integrity and recovery, neurological research models, cellular regeneration processes.
Side Effects
While preclinical studies in mammalian models have not reported significant adverse effects, it is important to note that comprehensive safety data in mammals, particularly in long-term use scenarios, is still limited. Further research is needed to fully establish the safety profile of KPV.
Summary
KPV is a research peptide of scientific interest due to its observed activity in laboratory models, particularly those examining inflammatory and immune response mechanisms. While it has been evaluated in preclinical settings, KPV has not been reviewed or approved by regulatory bodies for medical or dietary use.
