As occurs in liver, increased demand for insulin secretion induces ER stress in pancreatic -cells in chronic hyperglycemic diabetic humans and mice, and this contributes to the development of T2DM [142,143]
Provides Neuroprotective Properties One rat study indicates that BPC-157 may offer neuroprotective properties [7]
It's important to contextualize this concern: No published study has shown BPC-157 causing or promoting tumor growth The body already produces BPC-157-related compounds naturally in gastric juice Many foods and supplements (such as curcumin and certain vitamins) also promote angiogenesis without being considered cancer risks The concern remains theoretical, not evidence-based, but it warrants continued research Out of an abundance of caution, we recommend that individuals with active malignancies consult their oncologist before using BPC-157
