Healing & Recovery

KPV

Lysine-Proline-Valine

Potent anti-inflammatory with gut healing and skin repair properties

Research Status: Preclinical (IBD and wound healing models) Alpha-MSH tripeptide KPV tripeptide
Mechanism of Action

How it works

KPV inhibits NF-kB activation in immune cells, blocking the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines including TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, and IL-6. It penetrates intestinal epithelial cells to directly reduce gut inflammation without systemic immunosuppression.

Areas of Research

What the research explores

In published research, KPV has been studied in connection with the following. These describe findings reported in the literature — not approved uses, claims, or outcomes to expect.

  • Potent anti-inflammatory via NF-kB inhibition
  • Heals inflammatory bowel conditions (Crohn's, UC models)
  • Wound healing and skin regeneration
  • Anti-microbial properties
  • Reduces cytokine storm without systemic immunosuppression
  • Effective orally due to stability in GI tract
Safety Profile

Adverse events & gaps

Considered very safe. Small size and natural origin reduce immunogenicity risk.
