KPV (Lys-Pro-Val) is a synthetic tripeptide corresponding to C-terminal residues 11–13 of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). Experimental studies have characterised KPV-mediated inhibition of NF-κB p65 nuclear translocation, attenuation of IκBα phosphorylation and degradation, and reduction of TNF-α-, IL-1β-, and IL-6-driven cytokine secretion in intestinal epithelial and macrophage systems. Cellular internalisation has been associated with the PepT1 (SLC15A1) oligopeptide transporter, upregulated in inflamed epithelium. Applied in cytokine signalling, epithelial barrier integrity, and NLRP3 inflammasome biology research.
