Angiogenesis
The formation of new blood vessels from existing vasculature — the core repair mechanism BPC-157 accelerates via VEGF.
Definition
Angiogenesis is the process by which new capillaries sprout from existing vessels. It is essential for tissue repair, wound healing and organ development. In peptide medicine, BPC-157's upregulation of VEGF drives local angiogenesis at injury sites — which is why the peptide is used for tendon, ligament and gut-lining repair. The same mechanism is why active-cancer members cannot safely use it: a growing tumour uses the same biology.
