About this compound
More on KPV.
KPV is a small tripeptide composed of lysine, proline, and valine (Lys-Pro-Val). It corresponds to the C-terminal fragment of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) and has attracted research interest because this short sequence can be investigated independently from the larger parent peptide.
Supplied as a lyophilized powder, KPV provides researchers with a defined peptide material for laboratory studies involving cellular signaling, peptide behavior, and inflammatory pathway research. Each vial contains 5 mg of material and is supported by lot-specific analytical documentation.
Product Overview
KPV is considerably smaller than many commonly studied research peptides, consisting of only three amino acids. This compact structure makes it particularly useful in research examining how peptide size and sequence influence stability, transport, cellular interaction, and experimental behavior.
Research involving KPV has primarily focused on inflammatory signaling and pathways associated with cellular responses. Its relationship to α-MSH also makes it relevant to studies designed to distinguish the activity of a specific peptide fragment from that of the complete parent sequence.
Research Applications
KPV has been investigated in laboratory models involving:
- Inflammatory signaling pathways
- NF-κB-related cellular responses
- Peptide uptake and transport studies
- Cellular signaling research
- Peptide stability and structure-function studies
- Comparative research involving α-MSH-derived sequences
These applications describe areas of scientific investigation and should not be interpreted as evidence of therapeutic efficacy.

Independent Quality Testing
Research reproducibility depends on reliable material characterization. Each lot undergoes independent analytical testing, including RP-HPLC with UV detection for purity assessment and appropriate identity and quantity verification.
The corresponding laboratory documentation can be associated with the lot number supplied to the researcher. Keeping this information with experimental records helps maintain traceability when comparing batches or reproducing laboratory studies.
Handling & Storage
KPV should be stored according to the applicable product documentation and established laboratory procedures. Protect unopened lyophilized material from excessive heat, moisture, and direct light.
When preparing KPV for laboratory research, researchers should follow validated institutional procedures and the handling instructions supplied with the material. Minimize unnecessary agitation and repeated freeze-thaw exposure where applicable. Appropriate records should be maintained for lot numbers, storage conditions, preparation, and experimental use.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is KPV?
KPV is a three-amino-acid peptide consisting of lysine, proline, and valine. It corresponds to the C-terminal fragment of α-MSH and is studied independently in several areas of peptide and cellular research.
How much KPV is supplied?
Each vial contains 5 mg of lyophilized KPV.
Why is KPV studied separately from α-MSH?
Researchers can use short peptide fragments to investigate how individual sequences contribute to biological signaling. KPV’s compact structure also makes it useful for studies examining peptide transport, stability, and cellular interactions.
What research areas involve KPV?
Published research has examined KPV in connection with inflammatory signaling, NF-κB-related pathways, cellular responses, and peptide structure-function research.
Is independent testing available?
Yes. The applicable lot is supported by independent analytical testing and batch-specific documentation covering relevant material characteristics.
How should KPV be stored?
Follow the storage requirements supplied with the product and maintain appropriate laboratory controls. Lyophilized material should be protected from heat, moisture, and direct light.
Is KPV intended for human use?
No. KPV is supplied strictly for laboratory and research purposes. It is not intended for human or veterinary administration, consumption, or therapeutic use.
Research Use Only
KPV is supplied exclusively for qualified laboratory, analytical, and preclinical research. It is not a medicine, supplement, food, or consumer product, and the information provided does not establish clinical efficacy or safety.
Researchers can review the applicable batch documentation and retain the lot information with their experimental records to support traceability and reproducibility.
