KPV (Lysine–Proline–Valine Tripeptide)
Description:
KPV is a naturally occurring tripeptide fragment derived from the alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), known for its potent anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and tissue-repair properties. It has been widely studied for its ability to reduce inflammation at the cellular level, promote skin and gut barrier integrity, and accelerate recovery in various inflammatory or autoimmune conditions.
Key Benefits:
Potent anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activity
Supports gut lining health and reduces intestinal inflammation
Promotes wound healing and tissue regeneration
Helps calm skin irritation and redness
Exhibits antimicrobial and protective effects against pathogens
Mechanism of Action:
KPV exerts its biological effects primarily through melanocortin receptor modulation, particularly the MC1R and MC3R pathways. This leads to a downregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-6, and NF-κB, while promoting epithelial healing and immune balance. Research also suggests KPV supports the gut-brain-skin axis by reducing systemic inflammation and enhancing epithelial regeneration in mucosal and dermal tissues.
