GHK-Cu 50mg

GHK-Cu 50mg vial – Copper Tripeptide-1 (GHK-Cu)

GHK-Cu (Glycyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine Copper Complex), also known as Copper Tripeptide-1, is a research-grade synthetic copper-binding tripeptide reagent supplied as a high-purity complex for laboratory investigations into cellular repair mechanisms, extracellular matrix remodeling, metalloproteinase modulation, and tissue regeneration pathways. This naturally occurring copper peptide serves as a powerful tool in in vitro studies exploring wound healing dynamics, collagen and elastin synthesis, anti-inflammatory signaling, antioxidant responses, and copper-mediated enzymatic processes in cellular and controlled experimental models.

In published preclinical and mechanistic studies, GHK-Cu has demonstrated modulatory effects on gene expression related to tissue remodeling, fibroblast activity, and cytokine profiles—providing a unique platform for examining copper-dependent biological cascades, skin biology models, and age-related cellular processes distinct from non-complexed peptides or other growth factors. It has been utilized in research to probe matrix metalloproteinase regulation, glycosaminoglycan production, and cellular stress protection in assay systems.

The 50 mg lyophilized presentation is well-suited for comprehensive studies, multiple dose-response characterizations, extended experiments, or investigations requiring sufficient material for cell culture, tissue explant, or in vitro biochemical assays. Each vial is supplied as a blue lyophilized powder with documented purity exceeding 99% by HPLC, verified through third-party testing, and accompanied by certificates of analysis including mass spectrometry confirmation.
