BPC-157
Known for its effects on the gut, tendons, and soft tissues.
BPC-157 is a synthetic 15-amino-acid peptide (pentadecapeptide) originally characterised from a gastric protein sequence. It is widely used as a reference material in angiogenesis, fibroblast-migration and cytoprotection research models.
One of the most studied repair peptides
Works on gut, tendon, and muscle tissue
Often paired with TB-500 for enhanced effects
CAS 137525-51-0
- Mechanism
Scientific Mechanism
Cytoprotective and repair-signaling peptides in this class act through angiogenesis promotion, fibroblast activation, and growth-factor upregulation. Several also modulate NF-kB and cytokine signaling, which is why tissue-repair and anti-inflammatory research frequently overlap in this category.
- Mechanism detail
How It Works
BPC-157 works through multiple repair pathways:
angiogenesis:
Angiogenesis: receptor/pathway activity studied in in-vitro signaling models
fibroblast:
Activates repair cells (fibroblasts) to produce collagen
cytokine:
Cytokine: receptor/pathway activity studied in in-vitro signaling models
