Description

BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic 15-amino-acid peptide fragment derived from a naturally occurring protective factor found in human gastric juice.
It has been extensively studied for its tissue-regenerative, anti-inflammatory, and cytoprotective properties in various biological systems.

Research indicates that BPC-157 enhances angiogenesis, fibroblast migration, and collagen synthesis, accelerating the repair of muscles, tendons, ligaments, and gastrointestinal tissues.
It exerts its effects primarily through modulation of nitric oxide pathways, upregulation of growth factors (VEGF, FGF-2), and regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines.

When administered parenterally, BPC-157 displays rapid systemic activity and stability, making it a model compound for research involving tissue regeneration, organ protection, and wound healing.
