KPV is a short tripeptide made of three amino acids—lysine (K), proline (P), and valine (V)—derived from the C-terminal end of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH).
What KPV Does
Reduces inflammation: It blocks key inflammatory signals like NF-κB and lowers pro-inflammatory cytokines.
No skin darkening: Unlike its parent hormone α-MSH, KPV does not cause pigmentation changes.
Supports gut health: Its tiny size allows it to remain stable during oral digestion, targeting intestinal and epithelial inflammation directly.
