BPC-157

Description

BPC-157 is a synthetic 15-amino-acid peptide corresponding to a partial sequence of a protein originally identified in gastric juice. It is unusually stable in aqueous solution compared with many short peptides, which is one reason it is used so widely as a model compound in cell culture work.
