ln Vitro |
Novel Gastric Peptide BPC157 has Cytoprotective effects in Gastrointestinal Tract and Cultured Enteric Neurons and Glial Cells[3].
|
ln Vivo |
BPC 157 (10 μg/kg, 10 ng/kg) was injected intraperitoneally once a day (first application right after surgery, last application 24 hours prior to sacrifice) or dissolved in drinking water (0.16 μg/mL/12 ml/day till sacrifice) in a toxic rat model of multiple sclerosis. Control generally does not treat colostocolic anastomosis or cysteamine colitis. Both were effectively healed at the same time by BPC 157 [2].

Cell Assay |
Body protection compound (BPC) 157 is a stable gastric pentadecapeptide. Predrag Sikiric’s team has carried out many investigations of its cytoprotective effects in different organs and tissues. Their evidence indicates that BPC157 has potent cytoprotection in neural injury and gastrointestinal (GI) ulcers. Nevertheless, the effects of BPC157 in the GI remain unclear. It is well known that the gut produces 95% of the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) in the human body. The 5-HT in the intestinal mucosa stimulates the production of pro-inflammatory mediators by immune cells. Enteric 5-HT may be a key player in physiological actions and the pathogenesis of intestinal inflammation. Previous evidence has shown that enteric 5-HT plays a prominent role in inflammatory bowel disease. The reports imply that BPC157 significantly modulates the regional synthesis of 5-HT in different areas of the rat brain. So far, the detailed mechanism of action of BPC157 has remained elusive in GI physiology and pathophysiology. Therefore, the aim of the study was to clarify the cytoprotective mechanism of BPC157 in the GI by investigating the release of enteric 5-HT, the survival rate of cultured enteric neurons, the proliferation of cultured enteric glial cells (EGCs), and intestinal motility with and without BPC157[3].

Animal Protocol |
Stable gastric pentadecapeptide BPC 157 was suggested to link inflammatory bowel disease and multiple sclerosis, and thereby, shown to equally counteract the models of both of those diseases. For colitis, cysteamine (400 mg/kg intrarectally (1 ml/rat)) and colon-colon anastomosis (sacrifice at day 3, 5, 7, and 14) were used. BPC 157 (10 μg/kg, 10 ng/kg) was applied either intraperitoneally once time daily (first application immediately after surgery, last at 24 hours before sacrifice) or per-orally in drinking water (0.16 μg/ml/12 ml/day till the sacrifice) while controls simultaneously received an equivolume of saline (5 ml/kg) intraperitoneally or drinking water only (12 ml/day). A multiple sclerosis suited toxic rat model, cuprizone (compared with standard, a several times higher regimen, 2.5% of diet regimen + 1 g/kg intragastrically/day) was combined with BPC 157 (in drinking water 0.16 μg or 0.16 ng/ml/12 ml/day/rat + 10 μg or 10 ng/kg intragastrically/day) till the sacrifice at day 4. In general, the controls could not heal cysteamine colitis and colon-colon anastomosis. BPC 157 induced an efficient healing of both at the same time. Likewise, cuprizone-controls clearly exhibited an exaggerated and accelerated damaging process; nerve damage appeared in various brain areas, with most prominent damage in corpus callosum, laterodorsal thalamus, nucleus reunions, anterior horn motor neurons. BPC 157-cuprizone rats had consistently less nerve damage in all damaged areas, especially in those areas that otherwise were most affected. Consistently, BPC 157 counteracted cerebellar ataxia and impaired forelimb function. Thereby, this experimental evidence advocates BPC 157 in both inflammatory bowel disease and multiple sclerosis therapy[2].
