GHK-Cu (Copper Tripeptide-1) is a naturally occurring copper-binding peptide composed of the amino acids glycine, histidine, and lysine complexed with copper. It has attracted significant scientific and cosmetic research interest for its role in cellular signaling and skin-related biological processes.
GHK-Cu is commonly investigated in research involving skin structure, extracellular matrix activity, and tissue-remodeling pathways. It is also used as an ingredient in certain professionally formulated cosmetic and skincare products.
The exact concentration, formulation, storage requirements, and intended application can vary between manufacturers and should always be verified from the official product documentation.
Key Features:
