Western immunoblot analyses For the preparation of total liver homogenates, frozen liver pieces were homogenized in RIPA buffer (150 mM NaCl, 1% TritonX-100, 0.25% sodium deoxycholate, 0.1% SDS, 50 mM Tris, 1 mM EDTA, 1 mM PMSF, protease inhibitor cocktail, pH 7.4) on ice with a tissue tearor (BioSpec Products, Bartlesville)
GHK-CU, also known as Copper Peptide, is a naturally occurring tripeptide composed of glycine, histidine, and lysine, bonded with a copper ion
Unlike a sanctioned clinical trial (where experimental drugs can be used under careful monitoring and informed consent under an FDA Investigational New Drug protocol), offering BPC-157 in routine practice amounts to experimenting on the patient without oversight
As an antioxidant, glutathione primarily helps protect against oxidative stress, a process that can damage cells through the buildup of free radicals
The primary mechanisms we see cited in the literature include: VEGF upregulation: BPC-157 increases vascular endothelial growth factor, which drives new capillary formation in injured tissue
However, it's important to note that while these findings are intriguing, the scientific community remains cautious about the widespread use of Epithalon for anti-aging purposes
