Major classes of drugs currently in clinical trials include neuroprotectants, stem cell therapies, tau vaccines, humanized antibodies, metabolic modulators, neurotransmitter modulators, DNA modifications, anti-hypertensives, NSAIDs, and a host of various remedy and vitamin treatments [29]
A 2025 review published through PubMed described BPC-157 as demonstrating regenerative and cytoprotective effects across several tissue models while also emphasizing that additional human research is still needed
The mechanisms include reduction of excitotoxicity and oxidative stress, enhanced neurotrophic factor expression supporting neuronal survival, angiogenesis improving blood flow, and modulation of dopamine and serotonin systems
For instance, in mouse embryonic stem cells, targeted disruption of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, which is the rate-limiting enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway, the predominant metabolic pathway for the generation of NADPH (a cofactor of GR), renders cells extremely sensitive to H 2 O 2 -induced cell death 34
