Description

GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine bound to copper) that serves as a key tool compound in dermal and extracellular-matrix research. Laboratory investigators study GHK-Cu for its role in copper transport, collagen and elastin gene expression, fibroblast activity, and matrix-remodeling signaling pathways in vitro and in preclinical systems. Supplied for in-vitro and laboratory research only — not for human or veterinary use.

Research FAQ

Compound and research-use information

What is GHK-Cu?

GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine complexed with copper). It is supplied as a research chemical for laboratory study.

What is GHK-Cu studied for in the research setting?

GHK-Cu is studied in vitro and in preclinical models for its role in copper transport, extracellular-matrix remodeling, and gene-expression modulation relevant to skin and connective-tissue biology research. Work is mechanistic and non-clinical.

What form is Aurevena's GHK-Cu supplied in?

GHK-Cu is supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. Every batch is tested by independent, accredited U.S. laboratories for purity and identity, with the Certificate of Analysis published on this product page. Store lyophilized peptide cold and protected from light, and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Is GHK-Cu intended for human use?
