Much of the BPC-157 literature comes from a small number of groups, and independent human replication is scarce for both compounds
Nonetheless, both live and pasteurized Akkermansia have substantial potential for the management of IR
Wound healing: accelerated closure in rodent excision models Collagen synthesis: type I and III collagen upregulation in fibroblast cultures Hair biology: follicle enlargement observed in organ culture models Anti-fibrotic: decorin upregulation may limit scar tissue formation Antioxidant defense: SOD and catalase gene upregulation via copper-dependent pathways Evidence Base & Study Quality A critical distinction between these two peptides is the breadth of their evidence base
To address this issue, drug delivery systems for oral peptides have been developed to improve the cellular permeability of peptides using absorption enhancers [e.g., sodium N-[8-(2-hydroxybenzoyl)amino]caprylate (SNAC), bile acids, -cyclodextrin, and cell-penetrating peptides] and ingestible devices [e.g., self-orienting millimeter-scale applicator (SOMA), liquid-injecting SOMA, luminal unfolding microneedle injector, and magnetic-controlled microneedle robots] [22,23,24,25,26,27,28]
