KPV is the C-terminal tripeptide (lysine-proline-valine) of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. It retains the anti-inflammatory activity of the parent hormone while lacking its melanocortin-receptor pigmentation effects. Published research suggests KPV acts intracellularly — entering cells partly via the PepT1 transporter — to inhibit pro-inflammatory signaling cascades such as NF-κB and downstream cytokine production. It is studied in models of colitis, wound healing, and mucosal repair for effects on inflammation and tissue recovery.

“COA matched what we ran in-house. Powder reconstituted clean, no haze. Did exactly what we needed it to.”
“Switched after two bad lots from a previous source. Three orders in, zero issues.”
“Asked support a purity question and got the raw HPLC trace back within the hour. That transparency is why we reorder.”
