Overview
GHK-CU is a naturally occurring copper peptide researched for skin regeneration, hair support and anti-ageing applications. It is widely studied in cosmetic and regenerative peptide research.
Research areas
Potential research areas include:
- Collagen synthesis in cell-culture research
- Skin structure and elasticity measurements
- Hair follicle research models
- Skin repair and regeneration models
- Ageing-related cellular processes
- Skin tissue structure and texture measures
GHK-CU is commonly researched in both cosmetic and wellness-focused peptide studies.
How it works
GHK-CU (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine copper) is a naturally occurring copper peptide complex that declines in concentration with age. Research has studied it for collagen and elastin synthesis stimulation via MMP/TIMP regulation, angiogenesis through VEGF-related pathways, hair follicle biology, wound healing and broad gene expression modulation, with one analysis identifying over 4,000 differentially expressed genes. Its copper chelation function and small molecular size (340Da) are central to its studied biological properties. Available in 50mg and 100mg vials.
