It is required for donating a methyl group to homocysteine 17 from 5-methyltetrahydrofolate, which allows the conversion of homocysteine back to methionine
In addition, low molecular weight oligonucleotides are easier to deliver into the target cells compared with large viral vectors or plasmid normally used for gene therapy and are less likely to induce high immune response and toxicity as compared to plasmid DNA-based gene therapy and protein-based drug molecules (Li and Rana, 2014)
[1] [2] B12 functions as a cofactor in cellular metabolism, participating in the conversion of homocysteine to methionine and the metabolism of methylmalonic acid, both crucial for energy production
Derived from a protective protein found in gastric juice, BPC-157 has demonstrated remarkable healing properties across a broad range of tissues in preclinical studies, including tendons, ligaments, muscles, bone, and the gastrointestinal tract
