Description
KPV – Anti-Inflammatory & Skin Repair Research Peptide
KPV is a naturally occurring tripeptide fragment of the alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), consisting of the amino acids Lysine–Proline–Valine. It is recognized for its potent anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and tissue-healing properties.
In research, KPV has demonstrated strong potential in modulating immune responses, reducing inflammation, and promoting epithelial regeneration. These effects make it valuable in studies of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), wound healing, skin disorders, and immune regulation.
Key Features & Research Applications
🛡️ Anti-Inflammatory Action:
Suppresses pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-6, supporting studies on chronic and autoimmune inflammation.
💊 Gut & Mucosal Protection:
Explored for its therapeutic potential in inflammatory bowel disease, colitis, and other gastrointestinal inflammatory conditions.
🌿 Skin & Wound Healing:
Accelerates epithelial repair, reduces redness and irritation, and supports tissue regeneration.
🧫 Antimicrobial Activity:
Exhibits natural antimicrobial effects, helping maintain skin and mucosal barrier integrity.
⚙️ Immune System Modulation:
Balances immune signaling by enhancing anti-inflammatory pathways via melanocortin receptor activation.
