Anti-Inflammatory

KPV

KPV (Lys-Pro-Val) is a C-terminal tripeptide of alpha-MSH with potent anti-inflammatory properties. Research has shown it can modulate inflammatory pathways by inhibiting pro-inflammatory cytokine production and NF-κB activation. Studies have explored its applications in inflammatory bowel conditions, wound healing, and immune system modulation without melanocortin receptor activation.
