GHK-Cu (Copper Peptide) is a naturally occurring copper complex of the tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine. It was first identified in human plasma and is studied for its roles in tissue remodeling, collagen synthesis, and metalloproteinase regulation.

What makes GHK-Cu unique?

GHK-Cu is one of the few peptides that naturally binds copper ions. This copper complex is thought to modulate gene expression related to tissue repair, antioxidant defense, and extracellular matrix remodeling.

What sizes and purity?

We offer GHK-Cu in 50mg and 100mg vials, verified at ≥99% purity via HPLC. COA included with every shipment.

How should I store GHK-Cu?

Store lyophilized GHK-Cu at -20°C protected from light. Once reconstituted, refrigerate at 2–8°C and use within 30 days.

Overview

GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine:copper(II)) first isolated from human plasma. It demonstrates high affinity for copper(II) ions and is studied for its role in extracellular matrix remodeling, collagen synthesis stimulation, and metalloproteinase regulation. Research indicates GHK-Cu modulates gene expression of multiple growth factors and cytokines through copper-dependent signaling mechanisms. It is a key compound in regenerative biology and dermatological research.

Frequently Asked Questions

GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine:copper(II)) first isolated from human plasma. It demonstrates high affinity for copper(II) ions and is studied for its role in extracellular matrix remodeling and collagen synthesis stimulation.

GHK-Cu is one of the few peptides that naturally complexes with a metal ion (copper). This copper-peptide complex modulates gene expression of multiple growth factors and cytokines through copper-dependent signaling mechanisms, making it a key compound in regenerative biology and dermatological research.

GHK-Cu is available in 50mg and 100mg lyophilized vials, verified at ≥99% purity via HPLC. The 100mg size offers better value per milligram for extended research protocols. COA included.

Store lyophilized GHK-Cu at -20°C. After reconstitution with bacteriostatic water, refrigerate at 2–8°C and use within 28 days. The copper complex is stable in lyophilized form but sensitive to oxidation once in solution.
