GHK-Cu 100mg
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding peptide composed of3 amino acids, i.e. glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine. -Cu refers to the chemical addition of copper. GHK-Cu (Copper) is a small tripeptide found in plasma and reportedly releases at the time of injury. The concentration of GHK-Cu declines with age. At 20 years, the average concentration of GHK-Cu of 200 ng/mL declines to 80 ng/mL by 60years. Studies have suggested when the plasma GHK peptide is added to the cell culture in nanomolar amounts; the peptide has the potential to induce a wide range of responses from growth stimulation to toxic cell differentiation. During the isolation of the peptide, researchers suggested that it exhibited potential chelating properties and might co-isolate with almost the same amount of copper ions and a fifth of the amount of iron found in the cells. When the peptide was incubated in the isolated cells as a bound complex with copper andiron molecules, maximal potential was reported.
GHK-Cu peptide is available for research and laboratory purposes only. Please review and adhere to our Terms and Conditions before ordering.
Studies have suggested that the peptide exhibits potential in gene expression and may to reset elements of the genome. By this potential mechanism, GHK-Cu peptide may restore impaired cells, including carcinogenic cells and COPD cells. GHK-Cu peptide has been researched for its potential across a variety of functions including that it may tighten and reverse the thinning of aging skin structure, supporting the extracellular matrix, that it may restore the skin barrier and moderate texture, hyperpigmentation and lesions, may support tissue repair and mitigate inflammation, may stimulate increasing hair follicle size, may exert antioxidant properties and, finally, may exhibit gene restructuring potential.
