Abstract

We propose that severe (or even deadly) vascular disturbances and syndromes might be treated with the stable gastric pentadecapeptide BPC 157 [1, 2]. To re-establish blood flow, the effective upgrading of the bypassing loops of minor vessels to withstand the function of failed major vessels [3-17] should be an essential common principle. This might be considered as an advantageous extension of the principle of vascular cytoprotection.
