Inflammation Research Stack

Two tripeptides covering complementary arms of inflammation research.

KPV is the C-terminal fragment of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone, the three residues lysine-proline-valine that retain the parent hormone's anti-inflammatory activity without its pigmentary signalling. Its research literature centres on NF-kB pathway modulation, with the most cited work in gastrointestinal epithelial models including colitis research, where the peptide's small size and stability make it a practical experimental tool.

GHK-Cu contributes the tissue-remodelling arm. Beyond its collagen-synthesis literature, the copper tripeptide's documented gene-expression effects include suppression of inflammatory mediators alongside upregulation of repair-associated genes, which is why inflammation-resolution models pair it with direct pathway modulators like KPV.

Both ship as stable lyophilised powders requiring bacteriostatic water reconstitution (sold separately). Research use only, see each component's CoA for lot-specific purity data.
