GHK-Cu (50 mg) — Research Overview
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine) that declines with age. It bridges healing and anti-aging peptide research in the US, studied for both tissue repair and longevity applications.
Mechanism & Research Applications
Research has identified GHK-Cu as a modulator of gene expression, with studies reporting effects on the activity of thousands of human genes. It is investigated for collagen synthesis (types I, III, and V), antioxidant enzyme production, anti-inflammatory signalling, and stem-cell recruitment to wound sites.
This copper peptide is a cornerstone compound for laboratories studying skin remodelling, wound repair, and cellular aging. It is active in injectable, topical, and iontophoretic research formats.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is GHK-Cu researched for?
GHK-Cu is studied for collagen synthesis, skin renewal, wound healing, and gene expression modulation — spanning both regenerative and anti-aging research categories.
Why does GHK-Cu contain copper?
GHK naturally binds copper ions to form the GHK-Cu complex, and this copper-bound form is the biologically active configuration studied in the research literature.
How should GHK-Cu be stored?
Store lyophilized GHK-Cu at -20°C. Because copper complexes are light-sensitive, reconstituted solutions should be kept in amber vials away from direct light.
