BPC-157

BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a stable, 15-amino acid pentadecapeptide derived from human gastric juice. Its mechanism is uniquely protective and regenerative, acting through a multifaceted pathway that includes the stimulation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and the formation of new capillaries. It also interacts with the NO-system, enhancing blood flow and modulating the production of growth hormone receptors. BPC-157 is extensively researched for its ability to accelerate the healing of various wounds, including tendon-to-bone injuries (such as the Achilles tendon) and damaged intestinal epithelium (leaky gut). It exhibits strong cytoprotective effects on gastric mucosa and has been shown to counteract the side effects of NSAIDs. Researchers value its high stability in acidic environments and its ability to act systemically even when administered locally. It is often combined with TB-500 for synergistic tissue repair.
