“…Conceptually, its practical significance has been ascribed to its particular role in the Selye’s stress response [ 3 , 7 , 8 ], as well as to its resolving of activities of the brain–gut and gut–brain axes [ 7 , 12 ]. Of note is the way that BPC 157 might counteract various encephalopathies [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 ], behavioral disturbances [ 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 ] (particularly those representing psychiatric illness models [ 25 , 26 , 27 ]) and CNS disturbance-induced muscle disabilities [ 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 25 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 ], in particular. However, the findings that the stable gastric pentadecapeptide BPC 157 might beneficially affect striated and smooth muscle and heart might suggest that it most perfectly matched [ 32 , 33 , 34 ] with the original Robert’s and Szabo’s cytoprotective theory and concept [ 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 ].…”
