About the product

KPV is a small tripeptide derived from the C-terminal segment of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It consists of lysine, proline, and valine, with a molecular weight of approximately 371.5 g/mol. Due to its small size and structural simplicity, KPV is commonly used in controlled laboratory settings to study peptide-receptor interactions and related signaling pathways.

KPV (5mg) is typically provided as a high-purity, lyophilized powder in a sterile vial, facilitating precise handling and preparation in research environments. It has been examined for its potential role in immune modulation and cellular responses, particularly in studies of inflammatory signaling pathways.

KPV (5mg) Research Uses

Research on KPV has primarily focused on its role in immune signaling and modulation of the inflammatory response. It has been studied for its potential effects on cytokine activity and cellular communication in immune-related environments.

Additionally, KPV has been explored for its interactions in epithelial tissues, including in models of the skin and gastrointestinal tract. Studies have examined the peptide's potential impact on cellular responses under inflammatory conditions and its broader role in maintaining balance in signaling pathways.

KPV (5mg) Insights & Observed Findings

In experimental models, KPV’s anti-inflammatory activity has been assessed at various concentrations depending on the study design. Observations from in-vitro and preclinical research suggest measurable effects on markers associated with inflammatory signaling pathways.

KPV has also been used in controlled environments to assess both localized and systemic responses under different exposure conditions. These findings are limited to research settings and contribute to the understanding of peptide-related biological activity.

KPV (5mg) Handling & Storage

Store KPV (5mg) in a freezer at –20°C in a dry, controlled environment. Store protected from light and moisture.

After reconstitution, the solution should be stored under refrigerated conditions and handled using proper sterile laboratory techniques. Minimize freeze-thaw cycles during handling to maintain research integrity.
