BPC-157 is a synthetic 15-amino-acid peptide based on a fragment of a protein first found in stomach fluid. It's best known for its role in tissue-repair and gastric research, and the fact that it was originally derived from a naturally occurring gastric protein is what makes it stand out.
It also has a solid research base, with studies exploring how it ties into nitric oxide signaling and cell-level processes (Hsieh et al., 2017, J Mol Med). That's part of why it comes up so often in this kind of lab work.
