Preclinical (animal) data Rodent studies suggest BPC-157 may: Promote blood vessel growth Enhance tendon fibroblast activity Reduce inflammation Protect gastrointestinal tissues However, these findings: Use doses far above any human equivalent Use controlled laboratory injuries Do not predict human efficacy 2
Alternatively, oxidation and activation of GCL may not require additional molecular systems, but may occur by direct interaction with glutathione to mediate redox changes that modulate activity
When a molecule has fewer electrons than protons, it is oxidized and unstable
