P.WalbotV.2000Plant glutathione Stransferase: enzymes with multiple functions in sickness and in health.55193198 27
A 2003 study by Staresinic, Sebecic, Patrlj, and colleagues in Journal of Orthopaedic Research used a rat Achilles tendon transection model with BPC-157 administered intraperitoneally once daily at 10 g/kg, 10 ng/kg, or 10 pg/kg and reported improved load-to-failure, Young's modulus of elasticity, and Achilles functional index scores, reduced tendon defect size by day 14, and increased tendocyte outgrowth in vitro with specific numerical effect sizes and p-values not reported in the abstract
The peptide also reduced IL-4, IL-13, and IL-17 producing CD4 T cells, essentially dialing down the specific immune cell populations that drive eczema
