GHK-Cu (Glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine copper complex) is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide found in human plasma, urine, and saliva. Research has documented its role in wound healing, collagen synthesis, anti-inflammatory signaling, and gene expression regulation (targeting over 4000 genes in vitro). It upregulates superoxide dismutase, stimulates fibroblast proliferation, and activates TGF-β pathways.

Research Highlights

  • Stimulates collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycan synthesis in fibroblasts
  • Anti-inflammatory via inhibition of TNF-α and TGF-β1
  • Activates superoxide dismutase and other antioxidant enzymes
  • Regulates >4000 human genes including wound healing and anti-cancer pathways
