Product Description
BPC-157 is a synthetic pentadecapeptide of fifteen amino acids (Gly-Glu-Pro-Pro-Pro-Gly-Lys-Pro-Ala-Asp-Asp-Ala-Gly-Leu-Val) whose sequence is derived from a partial fragment of body protection compound, a protein identified in human gastric juice. It is notable for exceptional physicochemical stability, resisting degradation by gastric acid and enzymatic hydrolysis, which sets it apart from most peptides. This robustness has made it one of the most widely studied peptides in preclinical models of soft-tissue, tendon, and gastrointestinal injury. It is a laboratory-synthesized sequence and does not occur naturally in this exact isolated form.
Mechanism & Research Context
Across rodent and cell-based studies, BPC-157 is investigated for promoting angiogenesis through upregulation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and enhanced endothelial cell proliferation and migration. It is also reported to modulate the nitric oxide system, influencing vascular tone and cytoprotection, and to interact with growth-factor and dopaminergic-serotonergic signaling in tissue-healing models of tendon, muscle, and the gastrointestinal tract.
Research Applications
- Tendon, ligament, and muscle repair models
- Gastrointestinal mucosal protection and healing studies
- VEGF-driven angiogenesis and endothelial migration assays
- Nitric oxide pathway and vascular-tone research
- Cytoprotection and growth-factor signaling investigations
Storage & Handling
- Store sealed vials in a cool, dark place for short-term storage and frozen for long-term storage.
- After reconstitution, refrigerate and protect from light and heat.
- Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles; handle using standard laboratory safety and aseptic technique.
