Description

BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound 157) is a synthetic pentadecapeptide consisting of fifteen amino acids (Gly-Glu-Pro-Pro-Pro-Gly-Lys-Pro-Ala-Asp-Asp-Ala-Gly-Leu-Val) derived from a partial sequence of human gastric juice protein BPC. With a molecular weight of 1,419.56 g/mol and molecular formula C₆₂H₉₈N₁₆O₂₂, this compound has been widely employed as a model substrate in preclinical studies investigating peptide-mediated tissue repair mechanisms, angiogenic signalling, and gastrointestinal mucosal physiology. In vitro and in vivo research models have utilised BPC-157 to probe nitric oxide pathway interactions, growth factor receptor modulation, and cytoskeletal reorganisation processes. The compound demonstrates stability under physiological pH conditions, making it a practical tool for controlled laboratory assays. Supplied as lyophilised powder of ≥98% purity (HPLC-verified), this product is intended exclusively for in vitro and in vivo preclinical research applications.
