Recovery and repair research peptides

Reference information on the peptides most studied in tissue-repair and recovery research. Supplied for laboratory and research use only.

BPC-157

Body Protection Compound 157, a synthetic pentadecapeptide of fifteen amino acids derived from a sequence identified in gastric juice. It is one of the most widely studied peptides in the tissue-repair research literature, where interest centres on angiogenesis and connective-tissue models.

TB-500

A synthetic peptide related to a fragment of Thymosin Beta-4, a naturally occurring protein. Research interest focuses on actin regulation and cell migration, which is why it appears in the repair literature alongside BPC-157.

GHK-Cu

A copper-binding tripeptide, glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine complexed with copper. It occurs naturally in human plasma and is studied for its role in extracellular-matrix remodelling and skin research.

KPV

A tripeptide, lysine-proline-valine, corresponding to the C-terminal fragment of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone. It is studied for an anti-inflammatory profile without the pigmentation activity of the parent sequence.

Blends. These peptides are frequently studied in combination in the repair literature, most commonly BPC-157 together with TB-500, and with GHK-Cu where skin and matrix research is the focus.
