Research background
BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic pentadecapeptide of 15 amino acids derived from a partial sequence of a protective protein identified in human gastric juice. In preclinical models it has been studied for effects on angiogenesis, growth-factor receptor expression (notably VEGFR2), and the nitric-oxide system, mechanisms proposed to underlie observed tissue effects.
A substantial rodent literature reports accelerated repair of tendon, muscle, and intestinal tissue. These findings are confined to in-vitro and animal systems; controlled human data are limited.
