GHK-Cu (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine copper complex) is a naturally occurring tripeptide with a high affinity for copper ions. It has been extensively studied for its roles in skin remodelling, wound healing, and anti-aging research.
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide (glycine, histidine, lysine) complexed with a copper(II) ion. Found in human plasma, saliva, and urine, with concentrations declining with age. Peptides Pharma GHK-Cu is formulated at >99% purity with a potent 60 mg dose in a precision vial system.
GHK-Cu modulates gene expression related to collagen synthesis, glycosaminoglycan production, and antioxidant defence. It upregulates tissue remodelling genes while downregulating inflammatory genes. The copper ion is essential for enzymes including lysyl oxidase, critical for collagen and elastin cross-linking.
Studied for skin rejuvenation, wound healing, collagen synthesis, scar remodelling, hair growth, antioxidant defence, anti-inflammatory activity, and age-related tissue decline. Its ability to influence over 4,000 genes makes it a remarkably versatile research compound.
Via a lyophilized vial containing 60 mg in 3 mL. Designed for subcutaneous injection with precise dosing. The high 60 mg concentration makes this one of the most potent GHK-Cu formulations available for research.
>99% purity in GMP-certified, ISO 7 cleanroom facilities. Each batch independently tested by HPLC and mass spectrometry. Certificates of Analysis available for every batch.
Store refrigerated at 2-8°C, away from direct light. Do not freeze. Shelf life 24 months. Continue refrigerating between doses throughout the 30-day period.
Sometimes studied alongside BPC-157 in wound healing research, and with NAD+ for anti-aging protocols. Researchers should base combination decisions on published literature. Research reference only.
Each Peptides Pharma GHK-Cu vial provides a 30-day dosing period. The 60 mg / 3 mL formulation is calibrated for daily dosing over the full monthly cycle.
The copper(II) ion is functionally essential — a cofactor for superoxide dismutase (antioxidant defence), lysyl oxidase (collagen cross-linking), and cytochrome c oxidase (cellular energy). The GHK tripeptide acts as a copper delivery vehicle to tissues.
