the present invention solves these problems by providing BPC peptide salts and a pharmaceutical or diagnostic composition comprising a pharmaceutically or diagnostically effective amount of the salts of BPC peptides said peptides being constituted of 8 to 15 amino acids, wherein the anion of the salt is a negatively charged peptide comprising 8 amino acid residues having the general formula (I) wherein Xaa is a neutral aliphatic amino acid residue, in particular Ala, bAla, Leu, Ile, Gly, Val, Nle or Nva, Yaa is a basic amino acid residue, in particular Lys, Arg, Orn or His and Zaa is an acidic amino acid residue, in particular Glu, Asp, Aad or Apm and wherein the cation of the salt is the cation of an inorganic or organic nontoxic and pharmaceutically acceptable base
Gastric pentadecapeptide BPC 157 accelerates healing of transected rat Achilles tendon and stimulates tendocytes growth in vitro
Keep in mind that more studies are needed to fully understand how BPC-157 can help and what it can be used for in medicine and sports
Peptides are naturally occurring short chains of amino acids, acting as the building blocks for proteins in the body
This is the kind of breakdown we use internally when advising research partners
