Anti-inflammatory tripeptide — gut healing and immune modulation
Dissection of the anti-inflammatory effect of the core and C-terminal (KPV) alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone peptides
In this study, we analyzed the anti-inflammatory effects of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH)11-13 (KPV) in comparison with other MSH peptides in a model of crystal-induced peritonitis.. Systemic treatment of mice with KPV, alpha-MSH, the core melanocortin peptide His-Phe-Arg-Trp, and the melanocontin receptor 3/4 agonist Ac-Nle4-c[Asp5,d-Phe7,Lys10]NH2 ACTH4-10 (MTII) but not the.
alpha-Melanocyte-stimulating hormone, MSH 11-13 KPV and adrenocorticotropic hormone signalling in human keratinocyte cells
alpha-MSH signals by binding to the melanocortin-1 receptor (MC-1R) and elevating cyclic AMP in several different cells.. The anti-inflammatory properties of this peptide are also believed to be cyclic AMP dependent.. The carboxyl terminal tripeptides of alpha-MSH (KPV / KP-D-V) are the smallest minimal sequences reported to prevent inflammation but it is not known if they operate via MC-1R or.
