Recommended solvent — Bacteriostatic water
In laboratory workflows, lyophilized research peptides are typically handled with suitable sterile diluents such as bacteriostatic water (BAC). For a compatible research-only solvent, see Bacteriostatic water.
Research Overview
KPV is the tripeptide Lys-Pro-Val, identical to residues 11–13 at the C-terminus of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. It is catalogued as CAS 67727-97-3 with a molecular weight of 342.4 g·mol⁻¹ and supplied as a lyophilized peptide powder.
Most publications examine it in colitis and intestinal epithelium models, keratinocyte inflammation assays and peptide transporter (PepT1) uptake studies. Studied in vitro and in animal models; no approved clinical application in any jurisdiction.
Studied in
- Intestinal inflammation — colitis models in rodents
- Epithelial barrier — tight-junction protein studies
- Skin biology — keratinocyte cytokine assays
- Peptide transport — PepT1 uptake experiments
