BPC-157
BPC-157, or Body Protection Compound 157, is a synthetic 15-amino-acid peptide studied mainly in preclinical models for its potential role in tissue repair and recovery. Animal research has reported potentially beneficial effects in injured tendons and ligaments. For example, rat studies have found improved healing markers in Achilles tendon injuries and medial collateral ligament damage, including changes in collagen organization, biomechanics, and functional recovery. Research has also examined BPC-157 in muscle, gastrointestinal, vascular, and wound-healing models. However, most evidence remains limited to laboratory and animal studies.
