GHK-Cu 50 mg — Copper Tripeptide Research Compound
GHK-Cu is the copper(II) complex of the naturally occurring tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine (GHK). It is a frequent subject of preclinical and laboratory investigation into tissue-remodeling, copper-homeostasis, and cellular-signaling research. Lumen Peptides supplies GHK-Cu as a high-purity lyophilized powder intended exclusively for in-vitro research and laboratory study.
About GHK-Cu
GHK-Cu pairs the GHK tripeptide with a copper(II) ion, giving it its characteristic blue colour. It is widely used as a research tool for studying copper-peptide biology. Published research is indexed in the peer-reviewed scientific literature.
GHK-Cu Research Applications
In laboratory and preclinical settings, this compound is studied across several areas of interest:
Tissue-remodeling & collagen research — examined in extracellular-matrix models.
Copper-homeostasis research — investigated as a copper-delivery peptide.
Antioxidant-pathway research — studied in models of oxidative-stress signaling.
Gene-expression research — explored for effects on regulatory pathways in cell culture.
These describe areas of ongoing scientific investigation only — this compound is not a therapeutic or cosmetic product and no clinical outcomes are implied.
