GHK-Cu Cellular Research

GHK-Cu: Copper-peptide and matrix research

GHK-Cu is the copper(II) complex of the tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine. Its defined three-amino-acid structure and affinity for copper make it a useful subject for controlled studies of peptide–metal coordination, fibroblast responses and extracellular-matrix biology.

Key research areas

• Copper coordination — examination of how a short peptide binds and presents copper ions in experimental systems.
• Fibroblast models — in-vitro studies have assessed collagen synthesis and other fibroblast responses under defined conditions.
• Matrix remodelling — GHK-Cu has been investigated in relation to MMP-2, TIMP proteins and extracellular-matrix turnover.
• Glycosaminoglycan pathways — cultured-cell research has examined dermatan-sulfate and heparan-sulfate synthesis.

Four options for laboratory workflows

The collection includes 50mg and 100mg strengths in vial and cartridge formats. This makes it easier to match presentation and quantity to a defined research plan while keeping each product clearly identified.

The Revitalise standard

• Premium-grade research material with a stated purity target of ≥98%
• Independent analytical testing and batch documentation
• Clearly labelled presentation and protected UK dispatch
