Механизм действия
KPV
KPV is the C-terminal fragment of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). In preclinical models the inflammation-modulating activity is attributed predominantly to inhibition of the NF-κB and MAP-kinase signalling pathways, accompanied by reduced release of pro-inflammatory mediators. Cellular uptake via the peptide transporter PepT1 has also been described. The precise molecular mechanisms are not conclusively understood and not confirmed in humans.
Thymalin
Thymalin is a complex of multiple polypeptides extracted from bovine or calf thymus. Postulated mechanisms include modulation of T-lymphocyte maturation, influence on interleukin profiles and stimulation of cellular immune response. Being a multi-component preparation, individual mechanisms are difficult to disentangle. Khavinson and colleagues from St Petersburg have described the mechanism over decades in Russian publications.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between KPV and Thymalin?
- KPV is classified as "Заживление", while Thymalin is classified as "Заживление". KPV: KPV is the C-terminal tripeptide (lysine-proline-valine) of the hormone α-MSH, corresponding to its positions 11–13. In cell and rodent models an inflammation-modulating activity has been described, primarily via inhibition of the NF-κB signalling pathway. The evidence is drawn almost exclusively from preclinical work (cell culture and mouse); controlled human studies are essentially absent. KPV is not an approved medicinal product. Thymalin: Complex of low-molecular polypeptides extracted from calf thymus. Approved in Russia since the 1970s as an immunomodulator. The exact composition is not standardised like a synthetic single peptide; Western controlled studies are largely absent. This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
- Which peptide is better supported by science, KPV or Thymalin?
- The highest available evidence level is "Модель на животных" for KPV and "Исследование на людях" for Thymalin. A higher evidence level means more robust data, but says nothing about suitability for an individual. The full body of evidence is on each peptide's own page.
- What is the legal status of KPV and Thymalin in Germany and the United States?
- Германия: KPV — Не одобрено, Thymalin — Не одобрено. США: KPV — Только для исследований, Thymalin — Не одобрено. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
