BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound 157) is a synthetic 15-amino-acid pentadecapeptide derived from a sequence found in human gastric juice
Neuroinflammation in ME/CFS was initially suggested by studies showing elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and decreased anti-inflammatory cytokines, in cerebrospinal fluid from lumbar punctures in ME/CFS patients [62, 63], and further supported by a positron emission tomography (PET) study [64], which showed increased binding of a radioligand to 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO) receptor, the expression of which increases when microglia are activated
The triad model was selected as the final model as the comproportionation reaction ( R 5 ) parameters ( k p5 and k m5 ) were the two least sensitive parameters with respect to model OCR output for both main and total effects during global sensitivity analysis (Fig
