How GHK-Cu Works
GHK-Cu (Glycyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine Copper Complex, sequence: Gly-His-Lys-Cu) is a naturally occurring peptide in human plasma, saliva, and urine, declining from 200 ng/mL at age 20 to 80 ng/mL by age 60. Complexed with copper (Cu²⁺), it enhances bioavailability and modulates gene expression, upregulating 59% and downregulating 41% of genes by ≥50%. Preclinical studies show GHK-Cu stimulates collagen I, elastin, and glycosaminoglycan synthesis in human fibroblasts at 0.01–100 nM, improving skin firmness. It accelerates wound healing by 64.5% in rat models compared to 28.2% in controls, promotes angiogenesis, and stimulates hair follicle growth.
GHK-Cu's anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects include suppressing IL-6 and TNF-α, reducing fibrinogen synthesis, and inhibiting lipid peroxidation products like acrolein. Clinical trials demonstrate improved skin elasticity, thickness, and wrinkle reduction in photoaged skin, outperforming vitamin C and retinoic acid. It also supports hair regrowth by stimulating dermal papilla cells. This peptide is ideal for researching skin rejuvenation, wound healing, hair growth, and anti-aging, with applications in immune function and regenerative medicine.
