Angiogenesis & VEGFR2 Mechanism Hsieh et al., Journal of Molecular Medicine (2017) Hsieh and colleagues investigated the pro-angiogenic effects of BPC-157 across multiple experimental systems: a chick chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay, an endothelial tube-formation assay, and a rat hindlimb ischemia model assessed by laser Doppler scanning
This effect has been linked to enhanced microvascular development, which increases perfusion and nutrient availability within damaged muscle fibers

Some studies document pain, swelling, redness, bruising, and itching resulting from a variety of factors: Histamine release, immune response to the peptide, needle trauma, and/or irritation from preservatives and buffers
