$60.00
Lys-Pro-Val tripeptide, the C-terminal fragment of alpha-MSH, studied in inflammatory-signaling models, 5 mg lyophilized. (C16H30N4O4, MW 342.43 g/mol) Research Use Only.
KPV 5 mg
KPV is a tripeptide (Lys-Pro-Val) corresponding to the C-terminal fragment of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), also described as the ACTH (11–13) region.
Research background
KPV is studied as a small, stable messenger fragment in inflammatory-signaling and melanocortin-pathway research.
Mechanism studied
Investigated for anti-inflammatory signaling, including modulation of NF-κB activity and melanocortin-pathway interactions in in-vitro models.

Reconstitution & handling (research use)
For laboratory use, reconstitute the lyophilized powder with bacteriostatic or sterile water to the desired stock concentration for research handling — e.g., adding 2 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 5 mg vial yields a 2.5 mg/mL stock solution. Store the lyophilized powder at −20 °C protected from light. Keep reconstituted material refrigerated (2–8 °C) and use within a short period. Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles.
