⸺ Overview
About GHK-Cu
GHK-Cu is a small naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine). Researchers study it for its role in skin healing, collagen and elastin production, anti-inflammatory signalling and hair-follicle biology, both in topical and injectable preclinical contexts.
⸺ Mechanism of Action
How it works
GHK-Cu modulates copper transport into cells and influences expression of genes involved in tissue repair, extracellular matrix remodelling and antioxidant defence. In animal and in vitro studies, this translates to enhanced collagen and elastin synthesis, suppressed pro-inflammatory cytokines and stimulation of dermal stem cells.
⸺ Research
Areas of study
Skin repair and regeneration
Studies in animal models describe accelerated wound closure, increased collagen deposition and improved skin architecture under GHK-Cu exposure.
Hair follicle biology
Preclinical work has investigated GHK-Cu's effect on hair-follicle size, hair-growth markers and dermal papilla activity.
Anti-inflammatory action
Research notes reduced inflammatory cytokines and oxidative-damage markers, supporting interest in dermatological repair studies.
