- This table compares the three primary peptides studied for tendon repair, their mechanisms, typical research dosing, and key differentiators.
- BPC-157
- VEGF upregulation, angiogenesis, collagen alignment
- 250–500mcg daily
- ~4 hours
- Fastest initiation of neovascularization in hypovascular tissue
- Best for acute tendon injuries requiring rapid vascular response
- TB-500
- Actin regulation, cell migration, anti-inflammatory cytokine modulation
- 2–5mg weekly
- ~10 days
- Superior cell migration and long-duration anti-inflammatory effect
- Best for chronic tendinitis with persistent inflammation
- GHK-Cu
- Collagen cross-linking via lysyl oxidase, MMP inhibition
- 1–3mg daily
- ~24 hours
- Only peptide that directly inhibits excessive MMP activity in degradation phase
- Best as adjunct therapy for remodeling phase and age-related healing impairment
