Description

BPC-157 (10mg)

BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic peptide consisting of 15 amino acids, originally derived from a protective protein in human gastric juice. Known for its stability and resistance to enzymatic breakdown, BPC-157 has garnered attention due to its broad tissue-regenerative potential. Preclinical research suggests that these compounds play roles in accelerating wound closure, supporting tendon and ligament repair, reducing inflammation, and protecting the gastrointestinal lining.

Research

BPC-157 has been studied across multiple domains of tissue repair and cytoprotection:

  • Wound Healing: Enhances angiogenesis, collagen synthesis, and VEGF activity, accelerating closure of incisional wounds, burns, and diabetic ulcers.

  • Musculoskeletal Repair: Promotes tendon and ligament recovery, muscle regeneration, and bone healing in animal models. Supports fibroblast activity and growth hormone receptor expression.

  • Angiogenesis & Vascular Protection: Stimulates VEGFR2-Akt-eNOS pathways, improving blood vessel formation, nitric oxide signaling, and circulation in ischemic tissue.

  • Gastrointestinal Protection: Demonstrated effectiveness in healing gastric and duodenal lesions through endothelial protection and cytoprotective effects.

  • Anti-Inflammatory Actions: Shown to reduce inflammatory responses in skin and musculoskeletal injuries, contributing to faster recovery.

While results are promising, BPC-157 research remains largely preclinical, and further studies are needed to confirm safety and efficacy in clinical settings.

COA

5-Amino-1MQ Research

 

5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium (5-Amino-1MQ) is a synthetic small molecule in the methylquinolinium family, defined by a quinolinium backbone with an amino group at the 5-position and a methyl group at the 1-position.

Its primary scientific interest comes from being a potent and selective inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT)—an enzyme involved in critical pathways linking metabolism, redox balance, and oncogenesis.


 

Mechanisms of Action

 

By inhibiting NNMT, 5-Amino-1MQ directly influences NAD+ metabolism, histone methylation, and downstream gene expression. NNMT normally consumes nicotinamide, reducing intracellular NAD+—a vital cofactor in DNA repair, energy production, and transcriptional control.

  • Preclinical adipocyte studies show that 5-Amino-1MQ raises NAD+ levels by 1.2–1.6× compared to controls, underscoring its impact on metabolic homeostasis and cellular health.

  • Epigenetic effects include altered histone methylation patterns, reshaping gene programs linked to metabolism and cancer progression.

 


 

Metabolic and Anti-Obesity Potential

 

Research highlights 5-Amino-1MQ as a promising metabolic modulator:

  • In diet-induced obesity mouse models, treatment significantly reduced body weight, adipose tissue mass, and adipocyte size.

  • Importantly, these benefits occurred without changes in food intake, suggesting its action comes from suppressing lipogenesis (fat creation) rather than appetite suppression.

 

Such findings position 5-Amino-1MQ as a candidate compound for further exploration in obesity, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes.


 

Applications in Cancer Research

 

Beyond metabolic health, 5-Amino-1MQ shows compelling potential in oncology:

  • Epigenetic remodeling: Alters histone methylation in cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), disrupting tumor-supportive signaling.

  • Tumor microenvironment effects: Reduces tumor cell proliferation and modifies surrounding tissue dynamics in animal models.

 

These dual actions suggest possible roles for 5-Amino-1MQ in monotherapy and combination strategies, particularly in gynecological and other malignancies.


 

Pharmacology Insights

 

Early data confirms cellular permeability and bioactivity, supporting research across multiple tissue types. Ongoing studies aim to refine its pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics—focusing on metabolic stability, targeted delivery, and minimizing off-target effects.
