🧬 KPV Peptide (Lys‑Pro‑Val) — 10 mg
High‑Purity α‑MSH‑Derived Tripeptide for Inflammatory Pathway, Barrier Integrity & Cellular Signaling Research
KPV (Lys‑Pro‑Val) is a high‑purity, research‑grade tripeptide derived from the C‑terminal sequence of α‑melanocyte‑stimulating hormone (α‑MSH). It is widely referenced in laboratory research involving inflammatory‑pathway signaling, epithelial‑barrier integrity, immune‑related signaling networks, and cellular‑stress response mechanisms.
Supplied by BlueNexLabs, KPV is provided as a lyophilized peptide (10 mg) with COA‑verified purity, analytical consistency, and audit‑safe Research‑Use‑Only (RUO) labeling, supporting controlled experimental workflows across Canadian research environments.
