Molecular Formula: C₁₆H₂₈N₅O₄
Description: KPV is a tripeptide (Lysine-Proline-Valine) that represents the C-terminal fragment of the Alpha-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone (α-MSH). In laboratory settings, it is utilized to study the modulation of inflammatory signaling pathways, specifically the inhibition of NF-κB activation. Research focuses on its ability to interact with the PepT1 transporter and its subsequent influence on cytokine expression and cellular homeostasis in various experimental models.
