Thymosin Beta-4 fragment studied in cell-migration and tissue-repair models.

BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic 15-amino-acid peptide based on a protein found in gastric juice. It is studied in models of tissue repair, gastrointestinal function, and inflammation.
Most BPC-157 research has been conducted in animal models. Studies examine growth-factor signaling and nitric-oxide pathways; human evidence remains limited.
Study methods differ by model, route, concentration, and schedule. Most published work is preclinical, so use the methods section of the original paper rather than a general summary.
