BPC-157, short for Body Protection Compound-157, is a synthetic peptide derived from a protein found naturally in human stomach juice. At Horizon Peptides, we provide high-purity BPC-157 strictly for laboratory research purposes only.
This peptide has gained attention in preclinical studies due to its regenerative and healing potential. In particular, researchers have explored its ability to support tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and enhance recovery across a wide range of systems.
Why Researchers Study BPC-157
One of the key reasons BPC-157 stands out is its stability in gastric juice, which allows it to function effectively in the digestive tract and beyond. As a result, researchers have found it useful in studying healing processes in muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, and even internal organs.
Moreover, several studies suggest BPC-157 may help restore the gut lining, making it especially interesting for research into IBS, Crohn’s disease, ulcers, and leaky gut syndrome. In addition, it shows potential in models related to burn recovery, surgical healing, and diabetic wound repair.
Investigational Benefits of BPC-157
Research also points to other promising effects, including:
- Boosted collagen production, which supports joint and skin health
- Angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels), promoting better circulation
- Lower oxidative stress, helping protect cells and tissues during healing
- Improved growth hormone receptor activity, which may speed up recovery phases
These properties make BPC-157 a versatile candidate for various types of regenerative medicine research.
