As IC/BPS might be multifactorial, future research should target different implicated pathways simultaneously and study the role of reactive oxygen species as a root cause in IC/BPS
In controlled laboratory research environments, BPC-157 has been extensively studied for its involvement in peptide-mediated signaling, cellular communication, and regulatory processes associated with tissue integrity and biological repair mechanisms
