Description
GHK-Cu 50mg (Copper Tripeptide-1) — Research Compound
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring tripeptidecopper complex. Circulating levels decline correlating with decreased regenerative capacity.
Mechanistically, GHK-Cu exerts its effects via dual pathways:
1. Copper binding and metabolism: Transfers copper into/out of cells, essential for enzymatic and antioxidant activity.
2. Gene modulation: Influences over 4,000 genes, generally restoring gene expression toward healthier, more youthful patterns.
It stimulates collagen, elastin, glycosaminoglycan, and decorin synthesis, attracts immune and endothelial cells to injury sites, accelerates wound healing across tissues, and enhances repair in radiation-damaged fibroblasts.
Benefits May Include:
- Enhanced Wound Healing: 64.5% reduction in wound size versus controls.
- Skin Rejuvenation: 55.8% clinical reduction in wrinkle volume.
- Collagen Synthesis: Stimulates at nanomolar concentrations in fibroblasts.
- Antioxidant Activity: Superior hydroxyl radical scavenging compared to glutathione.
- DNA Repair: Upregulates 47 genes involved in DNA repair.
- Anti-inflammatory: Reduces TNF-a-induced IL-6 secretion in fibroblasts.
- Cognitive Support: Improves spatial navigation in aged murine models.
- Systemic Tissue Regeneration: Benefits reported across multiple organ systems.
Strictly for in vitro laboratory research use only. Not for human, veterinary, therapeutic, or clinical consumption.
