Scientific background

GHK is a naturally occurring, copper-binding tripeptide. The GHK-Cu complex is experimentally investigated in contexts such as cell communication, fibroblast activity, and the regulation of the extracellular matrix.

Investigated research areas include, for example:

• Copper binding and transport mechanisms
• Fibroblast and cell culture models
• Collagen and elastin regulation
• Assembly and degradation of the extracellular matrix
• Matrix metalloproteinases and their regulation
• Cell migration and tissue modeling
• Angiogenesis and vascular models
• Oxidative and inflammation-related signaling pathways

Many of the described results come from cell culture, animal, or other experimental models. Therefore, no confirmed medical, cosmetic, or therapeutic effects in humans can be derived from them.
