KPV

KPV is a synthetic tripeptide corresponding to amino acids 11–13 of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It represents the minimal bioactive fragment commonly utilised in research settings to investigate melanocortin-associated signalling independently of the full-length peptide.

Applications in Research

• As a molecular probe for studying melanocortin-related signalling pathways
• Investigation of peptide-mediated modulation of inflammatory and immune-associated cellular responses
• In vitro studies examining short peptide signalling and stability
• Use as a reference compound in melanocortin and α-MSH fragment research
