Abstract BPC 157, a pentadecapeptide derived from human gastric juice, has been demonstrated to promote the healing of different tissues, including skin, muscle, bone, ligament and tendon in many animal studies
Its hair-relevant evidence is largely mechanistic and indirect, drawn from the same properties documented in its extensive skin and wound-healing literature VEGF upregulation, angiogenesis, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, stimulation of fibroblasts and extracellular-matrix synthesis, and broad gene-expression modulation

This can be performed with the assistance of NO-system, given that in apomorphine or amphetamine (acute application) and methamphetamine (chronic application) rats, BPC 157 therapy counteracts the effects of NO-agents application [70]
