KPV
Overview KPV is a synthetic tripeptide derived from the C‑terminal sequence of α‑Melanocyte‑Stimulating Hormone (α‑MSH). It has been extensively explored in research environments for its potential role in inflammatory pathway modulation, immune signaling, and cellular homeostasis. KPV is of particular interest in studies related to skin biology, gut integrity, and inflammatory balance.
