Glow 50

What is the Glow 50?

This research-focused peptide blend includes:

• GHK-Cu: A copper-binding tripeptide (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine) with roles in collagen production, antioxidant defense, and skin repair [1].
• BPC-157: A pentadecapeptide derived from human gastric juice studied for its effects on muscle, tendon, and intestinal healing [2].
• TB-500 (Thymosin Beta-4 fragment): A synthetic version of a naturally occurring peptide that supports cell migration and repair in soft tissue and muscle [3].

Together, these peptides are investigated for their synergistic roles in promoting regenerative processes and modulating inflammation [4].

Molecular Formulas and Structures

• GHK-Cu: C₁₄H₂₄N₆O₄ (GHK peptide) + Cu²⁺
• BPC-157: C₆₂H₉₈N₁₆O₂₂
• TB-500: C₂₁₂H₃₄₈N₅₆O₁₈

Each peptide features a distinct amino acid sequence that contributes to its unique biological activity and experimental use [1][2][3].

Research on the Glow 50 (GHK-Cu | BPC-157 | TB-500 Blend)

1. Wound Healing and Tissue Repair

GHK-Cu promotes fibroblast activity and collagen synthesis, accelerating tissue remodeling [1].

BPC-157 has shown efficacy in models of muscle, ligament, and tendon repair [2].

TB-500 supports actin binding and cell migration, both critical to efficient healing [3].

2. Anti-Inflammatory Actions

GHK-Cu reduces levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines like TNF-α and IL-6 [1].

BPC-157 has demonstrated the ability to suppress inflammation in models of soft tissue and GI injury [2].

TB-500 exhibits anti-inflammatory effects, aiding in recovery from muscular and connective tissue injuries [3].

3. Angiogenesis and Blood Flow Enhancement

GHK-Cu and TB-500 stimulate vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression and angiogenesis [1][3].

BPC-157 contributes to improved blood vessel regeneration and perfusion, enhancing the healing process [2].

4. Skin Health and Anti-Aging

GHK-Cu has been shown to improve skin elasticity, reduce fine lines, and stimulate dermal regeneration [1].

While BPC-157 and TB-500 are not primarily studied for dermatological effects, their systemic healing properties may complement skin health [4].

5. Gastrointestinal Protection and Healing

BPC-157 has been extensively researched for its role in protecting the gastrointestinal lining, including reducing ulcer formation and accelerating intestinal repair [2].

GHK-Cu and TB-500 may support these effects through modulation of oxidative and inflammatory pathways [1][3].
