- BPC-157
- FAK-paxillin activation, VEGF upregulation
- 200–500 mcg daily
- High. Stimulates new capillary formation in ischemic zones
- Moderate. Reduces chronic inflammation markers
- Best first-line peptide for acute tendon injuries; fastest angiogenic response
- TB-500
- Actin binding, cellular migration enhancement
- 2–2.5 mg twice weekly (loading), 2 mg weekly (maintenance)
- Moderate. Supports endothelial cell migration
- High. Prevents myofibroblast differentiation and scar contraction
- Strongest anti-fibrotic profile; ideal for chronic tendinopathy with existing scar tissue
- GHK-Cu
- MMP modulation, collagen/elastin synthesis
- 1–2 mg daily
- Low. Indirect via tissue remodeling
- Moderate. Remodels existing scar tissue
- Adjunct peptide; best combined with BPC-157 or TB-500 rather than standalone
- Thymalin
- Immune regulation, cytokine modulation
- 5–10 mg per protocol cycle
- Minimal
- Low
- Supportive role in inflammatory phase; limited direct tendon repair evidence
