The Copper Peptide for Hair Growth and Skin Rejuvenation Research
GHK-Cu, a naturally occurring tripeptide complexed with copper, is a breakthrough signaling molecule used in research for wound healing, fibroblast activation, and gene expression regulation. Derived from human plasma, GHK-Cu boosts collagen and elastin synthesis, making it ideal for investigating skin firmness, hair follicle health, and tissue repair.
RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS
Enhanced Collagen and Elastin Production
Boosts skin firmness and elasticity through increased synthesis of extracellular matrix components. Research shows significant improvements in tissue remodeling and anti-aging markers.
Hair Follicle Stimulation
Increases anagen phase duration, enlarges follicles, and promotes dermal papilla cell proliferation. Studies show effectiveness against DHT-induced follicle miniaturization in androgenic alopecia models.
Angiogenesis and Nutrient Delivery
Encourages new blood vessel formation via increased Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), improving blood flow and nutrient delivery to scalp and skin tissues.
Anti-Inflammatory and Antioxidant Effects
Reduces inflammation, provides antioxidant protection, and minimizes wrinkle formation. Protects against oxidative stress and cellular damage in preclinical studies.
Wound Healing and Scar Reduction
Supports smoother healing with reduced scarring and fibrosis. Shows potential in nerve regeneration studies and tissue repair models.
MECHANISM OF ACTION
As a copper-bound peptide, GHK-Cu acts as a potent regulator of cellular activity, influencing gene expression to activate fibroblasts — the cells responsible for producing collagen and elastin. This leads to enhanced tissue remodeling, repair, and regeneration in research settings.
KEY RESEARCH APPLICATIONS
Hair Restoration: Extends anagen phase, combats DHT-induced miniaturization, improves scalp blood flow
Skin Health: Anti-aging research, wrinkle reduction, improved firmness and elasticity
Wound Healing: Reduced scarring, enhanced tissue repair, faster recovery
Regenerative Studies: Nerve repair potential, cellular protection, antioxidant effects
APPLICATION METHODS
Suitable for both topical application (via microneedling) and systemic injection in research models. Natural origin ensures stability across various experimental protocols.
FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY
GHK-Cu is supplied for laboratory and research purposes only. Not intended for human consumption or therapeutic use.
