Body protective compound – 15 also known as bepecin, BPC 157 or PL 14736, a small, chemically synthesized pentadecapeptide which has been shown to be safe in clinical trials for inflammatory bowel disease and may be able to cure intestinal anastomosis dehiscence. BPC 157 also was involved in phase I development in Ulcerative colitis, however, no reports of development identified. Recently published article has described that BPC 157 had huge potential as a therapy to conservatively treat or aid recovery in hypovascular and hypocellular soft tissues such as tendon and ligaments. Although is still a need to understand the precise healing mechanisms for this therapy to achieve clinical realization.
