Overview
BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic pentadecapeptide derived from a naturally occurring protein found in human gastric juice. It consists of 15 amino acids and has been the subject of extensive in vitro and in vivo research for its remarkable tissue-protective and regenerative properties.
Research has demonstrated BPC-157's capacity to accelerate the healing of various tissue types, including tendons, muscles, the nervous system, and the gastrointestinal tract. Its mechanism of action involves upregulation of growth factor expression, modulation of nitric oxide synthesis, and interaction with the dopaminergic system.
In laboratory studies, BPC-157 has shown cytoprotective effects against various toxic agents and has demonstrated the ability to counteract organ damage in multiple experimental models. Its stability in human gastric juice gives it unique properties compared to other peptides in its class.
BPC-157 remains one of the most actively researched peptides in regenerative science, with a growing body of peer-reviewed literature supporting its potential applications across multiple tissue systems.
Synthesis Overview
BPC-157 is synthesized through solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) using Fmoc chemistry, a well-established method for producing research-grade peptides. The resulting crude peptide is purified via reverse-phase HPLC to achieve 99%+ purity. Following purification, the peptide is lyophilized (freeze-dried) to produce a stable, white powder suitable for long-term storage. Each batch undergoes HPLC purity analysis and mass spectrometry confirmation to verify molecular identity and purity before release.
