BPC-157 – COMPREHENSIVE RESEARCH PEPTIDE FOR MECHANISTIC AND CELLULAR STUDIES
Scientific Overview of BPC-157
BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic pentadecapeptide consisting of 15 amino acids (sequence: GEPPPGKPADDAGLV; MW: 1419.55 Da). It was originally derived from a protein found in human gastric juice and is widely utilized in in-vitro and in-vivo experimental research.
BPC-157 has been investigated for its potential interactions with several biological systems and signaling pathways, including:
• Serotonergic & Dopaminergic Systems – studied for potential roles in central nervous system regulation (Park et al., 2022)
• VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) Pathway – associated with angiogenic processes (Seiwerth et al., 2018)
• Growth Factor Receptors – modulation of EGF, FGF, and TGF-β-related signaling (Chang et al., 2014)
• Nitric Oxide Pathways – involvement in vascular and cellular responses (Sikiric et al., 2016)
*This peptide is intended solely for laboratory research use. It is not approved for human consumption or therapeutic application.
