Peptides studied in the context of athletic performance, which ones appear on the WADA prohibited list, and what the research measured.
Performance research raises a question the rest of the site can mostly ignore: anti-doping status. Several peptides are prohibited in competition regardless of whether they work, and that status is a documented fact rather than a contested one.
Where a compound appears on the WADA prohibited list, its entry says so and dates the statement.
BPC 157, PL-14736, PL 14736, PLD-116, PL-10, Bepecin, pentadecapeptide BPC 157
A 15-amino-acid fragment of a gastric juice protein, studied mostly in rats for tendon and muscle healing. No randomised trial has shown a benefit in people.
TB500, TB 500, Ac-LKKTETQ, TB-500 acetate, thymosin beta-4 fragment 17-23
A seven-amino-acid fragment of thymosin beta-4, not the protein itself. No study has reported giving it to a human being.
