Technical Data
| A synthetic tripeptide derivative of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) researched for its potent anti-inflammatory, mucosal healing, and antimicrobial signaling pathways in cellular models. | |
|---|---|
| Key Benefits & Highlights | |
| Targeted Anti-Inflammatory Signaling | Researched for its ability to enter cells and interact with nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B), reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine cascades without triggering melanogenic activity. |
| Gut & Mucosal Barrier Support | Widely studied in gastrointestinal and epithelial models for its capacity to protect mucosal membranes, accelerate tissue repair, and soothe systemic inflammation. |
| Antimicrobial & Antifungal Research | Investigated for direct antimicrobial activity against common pathogens, including Candida albicans, by disrupting cell wall integrity. |
| High Chemical Purity | Synthesized and verified via analytical testing to ensure sequence fidelity (Lys-Pro-Val) and minimal experimental variance. |
| Standardized Research Reagent | Formulated for high reproducibility across in vitro inflammatory assays, epithelial barrier studies, and gut-health signaling protocols. |
| Feature Summary | |
| Product Class | Synthetic Tripeptide Derivative (alpha-MSH Fragment) |
| Primary Application | In vitro anti-inflammatory, mucosal repair & antimicrobial pathway research |
| Grade | Laboratory / Research Grade Only |
