Tripeptide for NF-kB translocation and cytokine assays. ≥99% purity · Lyophilized · 5-10 MG. For laboratory research use only.
TrueLabs KPV is a research-grade anti-inflammatory tripeptide supplied as lyophilized powder in 5 mg and 10 mg vials. Every order ships from inside Canada with tracking, so there is no customs hold or brokerage fee, and most orders arrive in 2–4 business days. Each lot is tested by an independent third-party laboratory.

KPV is the last three amino acids of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), the part of the hormone that carries much of its anti-inflammatory activity. Because it lacks the rest of the sequence, it does not drive the pigmentation effects associated with α-MSH, which makes it a clean tool for inflammation research.
Dalmasso et al. (2008, Gastroenterology) reported that KPV is transported into intestinal cells by the PepT1 transporter and reduced inflammation in mouse colitis models.
Cell studies report reduced NF-κB activation and lower pro-inflammatory cytokine release in epithelial and immune cells.
Honest caveat: the findings above come from published laboratory and preclinical research, or from clinical studies of the compound class. They describe what has been studied, not what this product will do.
