BPC-157 (10mg)

# BPC-157 - Tissue Research Peptide

## SCIENTIFIC OVERVIEW
BPC-157 is a synthetic pentadecapeptide derived from a protective protein found in gastric juice. This stable gastric pentadecapeptide has been studied extensively in tissue repair research, angiogenesis studies, and wound healing mechanism analysis since its discovery in the 1990s.

## RESEARCH APPLICATIONS
Scientific studies have investigated BPC-157 for:
- Tendon-to-bone healing research (animal models)
- Muscle tissue repair mechanism studies
- Ligament healing pathway analysis
- Gastrointestinal tract protection research
- Angiogenesis and VEGF pathway studies
- Nitric oxide (NO) system research
- Growth factor signaling analysis
- Collagen formation studies
- Inflammatory cytokine modulation research
- Neurotransmitter system interactions

This listing is for BPC-157 Acetate unless otherwise specified.

## STABILITY DATA
Research indicates BPC-157 demonstrates unusual stability in gastric acid (pH 1-2) compared to typical peptides. Remains stable at room temperature for short periods but long-term storage at -20°C recommended for optimal integrity.

## SCIENTIFIC BACKGROUND
Originally isolated from gastric juice protective proteins, BPC-157 has been the subject of over 100 published studies. Research primarily conducted in Croatia, with expanding international investigation into tissue repair mechanisms.

## HANDLING PROTOCOL
Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water or sterile saline. Typical research concentrations: 200-500 μg/mL. Once reconstituted, aliquot for single-use to avoid contamination. Store reconstituted solutions at 2-8°C.

## RESEARCH CONSIDERATIONS
BPC-157 has demonstrated tissue-protective effects in various animal models including rats, mice, and rabbits. Mechanisms of action appear multifactorial, involving growth factor pathways, NO signaling, and angiogenesis modulation.

## FOR RESEARCH PURPOSES ONLY
