Detailed Product Description
What Is BPC-157?
BPC-157 is a stable pentadecapeptide consisting of 15 amino acids with the sequence Gly-Glu-Pro-Pro-Pro-Gly-Lys-Pro-Ala-Asp-Asp-Ala-Gly-Leu-Val . It is a synthetic analog derived from a partial sequence of a protein naturally found in human gastric juice, where it functions to promote mucosal integrity and homeostasis .

Mechanism of Action
Preclinical research indicates BPC-157 promotes healing through several pathways :
-
Angiogenesis – Stimulates new blood vessel formation via VEGFR2-NO signaling, improving blood supply to injured tissues
-
Growth Hormone Receptor Expression – Enhances GHR expression in fibroblasts, augmenting anabolic healing responses
-
Anti-inflammatory Effects – Reduces inflammatory cytokines at injury sites
-
Fibroblast Proliferation & Collagen Synthesis – Accelerates tendon, ligament, and muscle repair through FAK-paxillin signaling pathways
Research Applications
Preclinical studies have explored BPC-157 for :
-
Musculoskeletal Injuries – Tendon ruptures, ligament tears, muscle injuries, and fractures
-
Gastrointestinal Conditions – IBD, GI ulcers, NSAID-induced injury, and anastomotic healing
-
Tissue Protection – Cytoprotective effects in liver, pancreas, and nervous system tissues
Product Options
| Vial Size | Description |
|---|---|
| 5mg | Standard research dose; suitable for short-term protocols or lower-concentration reconstitution |
| 10mg | Larger quantity for extended research protocols or higher-concentration preparations |
Reconstitution & Storage
Reconstitution :
-
Recommended diluent: Bacteriostatic water or sterile 0.9% saline
-
Add diluent gently against the vial wall; swirl—do not shake
-
Common concentration example: 5mg vial + 2mL diluent = 2.5mg/mL (~2500 μg/mL)
Storage :
-
Lyophilized powder: Store below -18°C (freezer), desiccated; stable for up to 2-3 years
-
Reconstituted solution: Store at 4°C (refrigerator); use within 2-7 days; for longer storage, freeze at -18°C (avoid freeze-thaw cycles)
Important Considerations
-
Research Use Only – Not approved for human therapeutic use; lacks FDA approval
-
No Clinical Safety Data – While preclinical studies report no adverse effects, human safety data is unavailable
-
Regulatory Status – Placed in FDA Category 2 (cannot be compounded by commercial pharmacies); banned by WADA
-
Short Half-Life – Metabolized in the liver with a half-life of <30 minutes; cleared renally
