GHK- CU (50mg)

GHK-Cu (glycyl-histidyl-lysine-copper) is a bioactive tripeptide naturally present in human blood plasma. It has been studied for its regenerative, antioxidant, and cytoprotective properties, with particular focus on extracellular matrix remodeling and cellular homeostasis. This injectable-grade 50mg presentation is distinct from topical copper peptide formulations and is intended for systemic preclinical research use.

Mechanism of Action

•        Research shows stimulation of key extracellular matrix components including collagen, elastin, glycosaminoglycans, and proteoglycans in cell models.

•        Studied for regulation of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) and TIMP activity, supporting tissue remodeling balance in experimental settings.

•        Preclinical research indicates activation of MAPK/ERK and PI3K/Akt cell signaling pathways involved in proliferation and migration.

•        Studies suggest modulation of over 4,000 genes related to tissue repair, inflammatory response, energy metabolism, and antioxidant defense.

•        Demonstrates direct antioxidant activity through neutralization of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species in laboratory conditions.

Research Areas

•        Systemic skin regeneration and wound healing biology.

•        Cutaneous inflammation modulation in dermatological and photoaging research.

•        Neuroprotection and neuronal regeneration studies in nerve injury models.

•        Gastrointestinal mucosal integrity and intestinal barrier biology.

•        Systemic immune response and chronic inflammatory process modulation.

Presentation and Storage

Supplied as a lyophilized powder in a sealed vial containing 50mg of GHK-Cu. Intended for systemic preclinical research use. Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water for laboratory use. Store at -20C.
