Body protection compound 157 (BPC 157) is a pentadecapeptide fragment of BPC that has been found in gastric juice and has diverse biological activities.1 It increases cell migration of, and F-actin formation in, primary rat tendon fibroblasts when used at a concentration of 2 µg/ml.2 BPC 157 (0.01 and 10 µg/kg, i.p.) reduces paw swelling, bone erosion, and inflamed joint mononuclear cell infiltration in a rat model of rheumatoid arthritis induced by complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA).3 It decreases the lesion size of gastric ulcers induced by indomethacin , aspirin , or diclofenac in rats at the same doses. BCP 157 (0.01 and 10 µg/kg, i.p.) decreases the duration of catalepsy and reduces tremor severity in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease induced by MPTP.4
