Description

BPC-157 Peptide

The BPC-157 peptide, also known as Pentadecapeptide BPC 157 or Body Protection Compound 157, is a synthetic compound that has been suggested in various studies to assist with healing joint, tendon, and muscle tissue, as well as nerve tissue.

BPC-157 is a peptide composed of 15 amino acids with potential protective properties. As the name suggests, Body Protection Compound (BPC) is an amino acid fragment isolated from gastric juice.⁽¹⁾ BPC-157 is also commonly known as pentadecapeptide due to the 15 amino acids it is comprised of.⁽¹⁾

Overview

BPC-157 has been steadily researched for its potential in wound healing. Presentation of BPC-157 may stimulate the growth hormone (GH) receptors, thereby inducing similar GH potential. BPC-157 peptide appears to bind with growth hormone receptors, possibly stimulating cell proliferation. This may lead to the development of new tissue composed of collagen and the development of a network of blood vessels in a process also called ‘angiogenesis.’ Consequently, the wound is ‘rebuilt’ and healed faster than the usual rate.⁽¹⁾
