What is BPC-157? A 15-amino-acid pentadecapeptide
BPC-157, or Body Protection Compound-157, is a synthetic stable pentadecapeptide consisting of 15 amino acids (sequence: GEPPPGKPADDAGLV) derived from a protective protein originally isolated in human gastric juice. The molecule has attracted exceptional research interest because of its unusual stability in gastric fluid and its broad regenerative profile across multiple tissue types in preclinical models. It is sometimes referred to as a 'cytoprotective peptide' in the published literature.
