Description
BPC-157: Body Protection Compound for Tissue Repair and Regenerative Research
Lyophilized *MUST BE RECONSTITUTED*
BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic 15-amino-acid peptide derived from a naturally occurring protein fragment found in human gastric juice. It has been extensively studied in preclinical research for its role in tissue repair, inflammation modulation, angiogenesis, and gastrointestinal protection.
Within research settings, BPC-157 has attracted interest due to its broad activity across multiple biological systems, particularly in models involving musculoskeletal injury, connective tissue damage, and digestive tract integrity. Unlike growth-factor-based compounds, BPC-157 appears to exert its effects through cytoprotective signalling and regulation of local repair mechanisms rather than systemic hormonal stimulation.
