KPV
Lyophilized powder • ≥99% HPLC Purity • Ships from U.S. Facilities • Research Use Only
KPV peptide (Lys-Pro-Val) is a synthetic tripeptide fragment derived from the C-terminal sequence of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH, positions 11-13), supplied by Nextday Peptides for laboratory and analytical research applications. As one of the most studied tripeptide fragments in inflammatory signaling research, KPV is valued for its ability to enter cells via the PepT1 oligopeptide transporter in experimental models. Each vial is independently verified to ≥99% HPLC purity with a Certificate of Analysis available on request. For scientific research use only.
