BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic pentadecapeptide consisting of a sequence of 15 amino acids (Gly-Glu-Pro-Pro-Pro-Gly-Lys-Pro-Ala-Asp-Asp-Ala-Gly-Leu-Val). In published experimental works, it demonstrates higher resistance to enzymatic degradation in a simulated acidic environment compared to many other short peptides, making it a stable subject for in-vitro analytical methods.
In academic biochemistry, BPC-157 is referenced as a subject for studies on the modulation of gene expression related to growth factors and the organization of the extracellular matrix. This reference standard is used in laboratory methods such as HPLC, MS, and binding assays.
Investigated biochemical pathways (academic context)
-
Fibroblast and vascular axis: binding kinetics to VEGFR2 in experimental models of fibroblast and endothelial proliferation; in-vitro models of type I collagen synthesis.
-
Angiogenesis assays: interaction with the VEGFR2 receptor in cellular models of tubular structure formation (tube formation assay) and in tissue models with low natural blood supply (bradytrophic models).
-
Models of epithelial integrity: in-vitro models of interaction with epithelial cells in the context of experimental chemical stressors.
-
NO pathway: modulation of nitric oxide signaling in cellular models of vasomotor response.
-
Cross-interactions with growth factors: in-vitro studies of EGF and TGF-β receptor sensitivity in the presence of BPC-157.
Laboratory use and storage
Lyophilized powder is suitable as a reference standard for HPLC calibration, binding assays, and in-vitro receptor studies. In laboratory practice, lyophilized peptides are handled using appropriate sterile media. A compatible solvent intended exclusively for research purposes can be found in our offer as Bacteriostatic Water - 10 ml. To maintain the stability of the material's structure, cold storage and protection from light are recommended.
