KPV (lysine-proline-valine) is a C-terminal tripeptide of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, investigated for anti-inflammatory pathways in preclinical research, including gut and skin models.
Short peptides are easy to adulterate; insist on COAs and clear labeling.
KPV is not an FDA-approved anti-inflammatory drug. Research purposes only.
Companies on PurityWatch may list KPV as a compound they offer for research. Listing a compound does not mean it is approved for human use.
KPV comes from α-MSH sequences, while Melanotan compounds are synthetic melanocortin analogs — related receptor family, different molecules.
