Description
GHK-Cu (Copper Peptide) is a research-use-only peptide compound. GHK-Cu is naturally found in human plasma, saliva, and urine, and declines significantly with age. It regulates over 4,000 genes involved in tissue repair, collagen synthesis, and anti-inflammatory processes. Third-party HPLC tested to ≥ 99% purity with a batch Certificate of Analysis. Supplied strictly for laboratory research use only — not for human or veterinary consumption.
In published research, GHK-Cu (Copper Peptide) has been investigated for mechanisms including: GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide (Gly-His-Lys-Cu). It acts as a signaling molecule that triggers tissue remodeling processes. It upregulates collagen, and glycosaminoglycans while suppressing inflammation, scar tissue formation. The copper component is essential for many enzyme functions including superoxide dismutase (antioxidant), lysyl oxidase (collagen cross-linking). It also activates wound tissue-repair processes genes, stimulates blood vessel formation. Mechanistic descriptions reflect findings in laboratory and animal-model research only.
