The CAS number for BPC-157 is 137525-51-0, which uniquely identifies the compound for research documentation and traceability
In laboratory research, AOD 9604 is used to explore pathways involved in fat breakdown (lipolysis), fat storage (lipogenesis), and energy use, without the broader endocrine activity associated with full-length growth hormone
It is stable in gastric juice and resistant to hydrolysis, a unique property that allows researchers to study its systemic effects without rapid enzymatic degradation
Furthermore, BPC 157 can further accelerate cell proliferation and migration by enhancing the phosphorylation levels of growth-related pathways such as EGFR, MAPK/ERK
It attaches with specific cobalamin binding proteins, called transcobalamin I and II, to enter into the tissues
