Gly-Glu-Pro-Pro-Pro-Gly-Lys-Pro-Ala-Asp-Asp-Ala-Gly-Leu-Val
§ Overview
A pentadecapeptide derived from human gastric juice. BPC-157 has shown remarkable regenerative properties in animal studies, promoting healing of tendons, ligaments, muscles, and the gastrointestinal tract. It's one of the most discussed peptides in the biohacking community for injury recovery.
§ Mechanism
Upregulates growth hormone receptors, promotes angiogenesis (new blood vessel formation), modulates nitric oxide synthesis, and interacts with the dopaminergic system. Activates FAK-paxillin and JAK-2 signaling pathways to accelerate tissue repair.
§ Common Uses
- → Tendon/ligament repair
- → Gut healing
- → Muscle recovery
- → Joint pain
- → Neuroprotection
§ Reported Side Effects
- · Nausea (rare)
- · Dizziness (rare)
- · Headache (rare)
