About GLP-2
Binds GLP-2 receptor on intestinal enteroendocrine cells. Promotes enterocyte proliferation and reduces apoptosis, increasing villus height and crypt depth. Strengthens tight junctions and reduces intestinal permeability.
About TB-500
TB-500 exerts its effects primarily through promotion of actin polymerisation and cell migration. It upregulates the expression of beta-4 thymosin, which facilitates endothelial and muscle satellite cell movement to injury sites. Unlike BPC-157, TB-500 appears to act via a more systemic mechanism rather than locally at the administration site.

BPC-157
Research suggests BPC-157 and TB-500 may produce enhanced tissue repair effects when combined. BPC-157 is studied for angiogenesis and gut-protective properties, while TB-500 promotes actin assembly and cell migration — complementary mechanisms in healing models.
