GHK-Cu

Copper Tripeptide-1GHK Copper PeptideGly-His-Lys Copper

GHK-Cu is the copper(II) complex of the tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine, a sequence found naturally in human plasma whose level declines with age. It is extensively studied for its role in extracellular-matrix remodeling, collagen and glycosaminoglycan synthesis, antioxidant signaling, and wound-healing research. Each 100mg vial is lyophilized and third-party tested. For research use only.
