Compound overview

Product specifications, research context, and handling information.

KPV

KPV is the lysine-proline-valine tripeptide sequence found at the C-terminus of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone.

Research examines inflammatory signaling, epithelial responses, and peptide transport in intestinal and cellular models.

Key Research Areas

  • Cytokine-response assays
  • Epithelial cell models
  • PepT1-associated transport
  • NF-κB and MAPK signaling

Mechanism of Interest

Studies have examined PepT1-mediated KPV uptake and changes in inflammatory signaling. The activity of this short fragment should not be equated with the full receptor profile of alpha-MSH.

Product Details

Storage: Follow the product label and lot-specific storage instructions. Prepared-sample storage depends on formulation and validated laboratory stability conditions.

Inflammatory Signaling at the Cell Barrier

KPV research examines how epithelial cells take up this short peptide and respond to inflammatory stimuli. Intestinal cell models connect peptide transport with cytokine activity and NF-κB-associated signaling.
