What are the systemic effects of pentadecapeptide BPC-157?

BPC-157 is a 15-amino acid peptide derived from human gastric juice that demonstrates effects across multiple body systems. Research indicates it modulates angiogenesis, influences the nitric oxide system, and affects neurotransmitter pathways including dopamine, serotonin, and GABA. Preclinical studies suggest it may support tissue healing while also showing protective effects on distant organs like the liver, kidneys, and lungs. The peptide has a short half-life of under 30 minutes and is metabolized in the liver.
