BPC-157

What Is BPC-157?

BPC-157 (“Body Protection Compound 157”) is a synthetic pentadecapeptide — a 15-amino-acid sequence originally isolated as a fragment of a protein found in gastric juice. It is supplied by ChinaPeptideshop as a research-grade lyophilized powder for in vitro and preclinical research use.

CAS: 137525-51-0. Sequence: Gly-Glu-Pro-Pro-Pro-Gly-Lys-Pro-Ala-Asp-Asp-Ala-Gly-Leu-Val.

• Sikiric et al. (2014) reviewed the role of the nitric oxide system in rodent BPC-157 studies and reported interactions between the pentadecapeptide and NO-pathway modulators in gastrointestinal and vascular experimental models. Source: Current Pharmaceutical Design, 20(7), 1126–1135. PMID 23755725.
• Chang et al. (2014) reported that, in cultured rat Achilles tendon fibroblasts, BPC-157 exposure was associated with increased growth hormone receptor expression compared to control. Source: Molecules, 19(11), 19066–19077. PMID 25415472.
• Krivic et al. (2008) observed, in a rat Achilles tendon-to-bone transection model, differences in early functional recovery measurements between BPC-157-treated animals and controls. Source: Inflammation Research, 57(5), 205–210. PMID 18594781.
• Staresinic et al. (2006) reported outcome measurements after application of BPC-157 in a rat transected-quadriceps model. Source: Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 24(5), 1109–1117. PMID 16609979.
