Research effects
GHK-Cu (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine copper complex) is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide found in human plasma, demonstrating extensive and significant research value in tissue repair, anti-inflammation, and skin rejuvenation. In dermatological applications, GHK-Cu significantly increases type I collagen production, promotes wound healing, improves skin elasticity and firmness, and reduces fine lines and wrinkles. In hair growth, in vitro studies demonstrate that GHK-Cu stimulates hair follicle elongation and promotes proliferation of dermal papilla cells. Additionally, GHK-Cu exhibits potent antioxidant and immunomodulatory activities, helping to reduce inflammation and oxidative damage, with positive effects on promoting overall tissue health and delaying aging.
