A synthetic 15 amino acid peptide derived from a protective protein in gastric juice. One of the most extensively studied repair peptides, with research spanning tendon, muscle, gut, and neurological tissue.
MECHANISM OF ACTION
1
Nitric Oxide System Modulation. BPC-157 modulates the nitric oxide (NO) system – upregulating eNOS in endothelial cells to promote angiogenesis and blood flow to injured tissues in animal models.
2
Growth Factor Upregulation. Preclinical research shows BPC-157 upregulates VEGF, EGF, and PDGF expression at injury sites, accelerating the proliferative phase of wound healing.
3
Tendon-to-Bone Healing. BPC-157 has been studied in rodent models for acceleration of tendon-to-bone reattachment, a notoriously slow healing process.
4
Gut Mucosal Protection. Derived from gastric juice proteins, BPC-157 shows cytoprotective effects on GI mucosa in animal models, including reversal of NSAID-induced gut damage and inflammatory bowel models.
5
Neurological Research. Emerging preclinical research shows neuroprotective effects – studied in models of traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, and dopamine system modulation.
