BPC-157

10 mg

Pentadecapeptide derived from gastric protein studied for systemic repair pathways.

Overview

BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound) is a synthetic pentadecapeptide derived from a fragment of human gastric juice protein. It has become one of the most widely studied research peptides for tendon, ligament, gut, and vascular repair models.

Mechanism of Action

Research indicates BPC-157 modulates the nitric oxide (NO) system, upregulates VEGFR2 expression to promote angiogenic activity, and influences growth-factor cascades including FGF and EGF. In gastrointestinal models it stabilizes epithelial integrity; in musculoskeletal models it accelerates fibroblast migration and tendon-outgrowth.
