BPC-157 for GERD Acid Reflux Research: Preclinical Evidence Base The most cited study on BPC-157 and gastric protection comes from a 2020 paper in Frontiers in Pharmacology , which found the peptide reduced gastric acid hypersecretion induced by pentagastrin in rats while simultaneously protecting against mucosal damage from NSAIDs
2.5 Quality assessment and risk of bias In line with PRISMA guidelines, the assessment of methodological quality was conducted to evaluate the strength of evidence, recognising that methodological limitations may introduce bias
Many peptides are naturally produced in the body and act as signaling molecules involved in: Hormone regulation Immune response Tissue repair and regeneration Metabolism and fat breakdown In the context of fitness and recovery, synthetic peptides like growth hormone-releasing peptides (GHRPs) or growth hormone secretagogues (GHSs) are used to stimulate endogenous growth hormone production
