KPV is the C-terminal tripeptide fragment (Lys-Pro-Val) of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. It is studied in inflammation research, where it retains much of the parent hormone's anti-inflammatory signalling without melanocortin-receptor pigmentary activity.

Preclinical studies report that KPV reduces inflammatory cytokine production and NF-kB activation in cellular models, and attenuates colitis severity in rodent inflammatory-bowel-disease models, including when delivered orally via nanoparticle carriers.
KPV is the tiny business-end of a pigment hormone that turns out to carry its anti-inflammatory signal. The IBD mouse work is the most cited line of research.
Mechanistic work describes KPV uptake into intestinal epithelial and immune cells via the PepT1 transporter, offering a receptor-independent route for its intracellular anti-inflammatory activity.
Unusually for a peptide, KPV may work from inside cells, hitching a ride on a nutrient transporter.
KPV is the C-terminal tripeptide fragment (Lys-Pro-Val) of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. It is sold strictly for laboratory research use — not for human or veterinary use.
The current batch tested at 99.53% by HPLC at an independent laboratory, with additional endotoxin, heavy-metals and sterility screening. Certificates are published per batch on our Independent Certifications page.
KPV (10mg vials) is offered in 20mg, 50mg, 100mg boxes (2 × 10mg vials, 5 × 10mg vials, 10 × 10mg vials), priced $88.00 to $320.00 — the per-mg cost falls as box size increases.
Keep sealed lyophilized vials refrigerated at 2–8°C away from light (stable 24+ months). After reconstitution with bacteriostatic water, refrigerate and use within the study-validated window, typically 30 days; never freeze reconstituted solution.
