Research context
GHK-Cu is a tripeptide-copper complex. The glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine sequence coordinates copper(II), and this coordination gives the reagent its characteristic blue color. Investigators use it as a defined molecular tool for in-vitro work.
Reported research centers on extracellular-matrix signaling and collagen-associated pathways. It is also used to investigate the oxidative-stress response and skin-cell biology in preclinical model systems. Applications are cellular and molecular in scope.
Supplied as a lyophilized solid at >98% purity in a 50 mg vial. Store as directed for peptide reagents. For laboratory research use only. Not for human, veterinary, or diagnostic use. Cells. Clarity. Research only.
