GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide commonly studied in research involving:
GHK-Cu is the copper(II) complex of the naturally occurring tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine. The GHK sequence has a strong affinity for copper ions and is studied as a biological carrier that may influence how copper is delivered and used within selected cellular environments.
Cell and animal research has examined GHK-Cu in relation to fibroblast activity, collagen and elastin production, glycosaminoglycan synthesis, matrix metalloproteinases, cellular migration, angiogenic signaling, and antioxidant-response pathways. Gene-expression studies have also reported changes across broad groups of genes involved in tissue remodeling, cellular stress, and inflammatory regulation. Effects can vary by copper availability, concentration, model, and delivery system, so GHK and GHK-Cu findings should not be treated as automatically interchangeable.
Some human research exists for specific topical formulations, but it does not establish the safety or effectiveness of independently supplied material or other routes of exposure. FDA states that human safety data for injectable GHK-Cu are limited and has identified potential risks involving immunogenicity, aggregation, and peptide-related impurities.
Compound: Copper(II) glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine (GHK-Cu)
