Pentadecapeptide BPC 157

Pentadecapeptide BPC 157, a fragment of gastric juice peptide BPC, is an experimental compound used in research for its potential applications in wound healing, collagen repair and angiogenesis.

BPC 157 improved wound healing in rats with muscle crush injury and contusions, and quadricep transection, even in the presence of corticosteroids (which impair wound healing). It has also demonstrated efficacy in experimental ulcer models and models of traumatic nerve injury.
