Meccanismo d'azione
BPC-157
Synthetic peptide derived from a sequence of a protein found in gastric juice. In preclinical models, an influence on angiogenic and tissue-protective signalling pathways has been described. The precise molecular mechanisms of action are not conclusively understood.
Thymalin
Thymalin is a complex of multiple polypeptides extracted from bovine or calf thymus. Postulated mechanisms include modulation of T-lymphocyte maturation, influence on interleukin profiles and stimulation of cellular immune response. Being a multi-component preparation, individual mechanisms are difficult to disentangle. Khavinson and colleagues from St Petersburg have described the mechanism over decades in Russian publications.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between BPC-157 and Thymalin?
- BPC-157 is classified as "Guarigione", while Thymalin is classified as "Guarigione". BPC-157: Synthetic pentadecapeptide (15 amino acids) derived from a sequence of a gastric-juice protein. Studied predominantly in animal models on healing and protective processes — controlled human trials are rare and limited in scope. Thymalin: Complex of low-molecular polypeptides extracted from calf thymus. Approved in Russia since the 1970s as an immunomodulator. The exact composition is not standardised like a synthetic single peptide; Western controlled studies are largely absent. This page contrasts both neutrally and source-based — with no usage or dosing recommendation.
- Which peptide is better supported by science, BPC-157 or Thymalin?
- The highest available evidence level is "Modello animale" for BPC-157 and "Studio sull'uomo" for Thymalin. A higher evidence level means more robust data, but says nothing about suitability for an individual. The full body of evidence is on each peptide's own page.
- What is the legal status of BPC-157 and Thymalin in Germany and the United States?
- Germania: BPC-157 — Non approvato, Thymalin — Non approvato. Stati Uniti: BPC-157 — Solo ricerca, Thymalin — Non approvato. These are factual summaries with source and review date on the individual pages.
