GHK-Cu, also known as Copper Tripeptide-1, is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide composed of glycine, histidine, and lysine (GHK) complexed with a copper(II) ion (Cu²⁺). First identified in human plasma, GHK-Cu has become one of the most extensively investigated peptides in laboratory research involving extracellular matrix biology, connective tissue research, molecular signaling, gene expression, peptide chemistry, and copper-dependent biological processes.
Researchers continue to investigate GHK-Cu across numerous experimental models involving fibroblast biology, collagen organization, elastin synthesis, glycosaminoglycan production, extracellular matrix remodeling, angiogenesis, cellular communication, and regenerative biology. Our GHK-Cu research peptide is manufactured under stringent quality standards and supplied exclusively for laboratory and analytical research purposes.
