How KPV Works

KPV is a C-terminal tripeptide fragment of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH). It exerts potent anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting NF-kB activation, suppressing pro-inflammatory cytokine production (TNF-alpha, IL-6, IL-1beta), and entering cells to directly interact with inflammatory signaling cascades in the nucleus. Unlike full alpha-MSH, KPV does not bind melanocortin receptors and has no melanogenic activity, making its anti-inflammatory effects receptor-independent and intracellular.

Reconstitution Calculator

Add this much bacteriostatic water:
5.0 mL
5 mg KPV + 5.0 mL BAC water = 1 mg/mL

Inject bacteriostatic water slowly along the vial wall. Gently swirl until dissolved — never shake. Store reconstituted solution at 2-8°C and use within 30 days.

Frequently Asked Questions

KPV (CAS: 67727-97-3) is a research compound, with a molecular weight of 342.43 Da in the Healing / Recovery category. KPV is a C-terminal tripeptide fragment of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH). It exerts potent anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting NF-kB activation, suppressing pro-inflammatory cytokine production (TNF-alpha, IL-6, IL-1beta), and entering cells to directly interact with inflammatory signaling cascades in the nucleus. Researchers commonly investigate KPV for Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colitis, Gut inflammation and mucosal healing, Skin inflammation and dermatitis. Every vial from MiPeptidos includes batch-specific analytical documentation.
KPV is available in 2 sizes (5mg, 10mg), so reconstitution volume depends on which vial you have. For the 5mg size, add 1-2mL of bacteriostatic water; for the 10mg size, use 2-3mL. Always let the vial warm to room temperature first, inject the water slowly along the vial wall, and swirl gently — never shake. Store reconstituted KPV at 2-8°C and use within 30 days. MiPeptidos carries bacteriostatic water in 3mL and 10mL vials.
KPV and BPC-157 both have anti-inflammatory properties, but KPV is a tripeptide (Lys-Pro-Val, just 342 Da) derived from alpha-MSH that specifically inhibits NF-kB nuclear translocation and IL-1beta/TNF-alpha production. BPC-157 is a larger pentadecapeptide (1420 Da) focused on tissue repair via angiogenesis. KPV is particularly studied for gut inflammation (IBD models) due to its small size allowing mucosal absorption. MiPeptidos offers both for inflammation and healing research.
Store lyophilized KPV at -20°C for maximum long-term stability — properly stored, it remains potent for 24+ months. Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, keep it refrigerated at 2-8°C and use within 30 days. In research applications, KPV has a reported half-life of Short; estimated minutes to hours, which informs dosing frequency and protocol design. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles and protect from direct light. MiPeptidos ships every order with cold-chain packaging to maintain integrity during transit.
Every KPV order from MiPeptidos includes a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis. Our current batch (HR-KPV-2600115, tested January 18, 2026) shows 99.2% purity by HPLC, mass spectrometry confirmation at 342.43 Da, endotoxin levels below 0.1 EU/mg, and passing sterility per USP <71>. This level of documentation ensures you can verify compound identity and purity before beginning your research. MiPeptidos also offers bulk pricing on orders of 50+ vials — contact info@mipeptidos.com.
