Description

Research Overview

GHK-Cu is the copper complex of the tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine and is commonly examined in extracellular matrix research, copper transport studies, collagen-associated pathway analysis, and gene-expression modulation models. It is frequently used in controlled laboratory investigation of peptide-metal interactions.

Mechanism of Interest

Research interest includes copper chelation, matrix remodelling, fibroblast signalling, oxidative-stress response, and peptide-directed transcriptional effects in in vitro systems.

Laboratory Specification

Laboratory Preparation

• Reconstitute using sterile bacteriostatic water where applicable and under clean laboratory technique.
