Product Overview

GHK-Cu is a copper peptide complex formed from the naturally occurring tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine (GHK).
It has been extensively studied for its roles in cellular signaling, tissue remodeling, and gene expression regulation.

Research demonstrates that GHK-Cu can support collagen synthesis, promote wound-healing mechanisms, and influence metalloproteinase activity, making it a valuable compound for molecular biology, dermal regeneration, and anti-inflammatory pathway studies.

AT NextGen Peptides, this high-purity lyophilized peptide provides a consistent, reliable standard for biochemical, pharmacological, and cellular-response research applications.

Applications

• Studies of cellular regeneration, collagen formation, and extracellular-matrix regulation.

• Investigations into oxidative stress response and gene-expression modulation.

• Research involving metalloproteinase inhibition and tissue-repair pathways.

• Use as a reference material in analytical and structural peptide studies.
