What this material is studied for

  • Fibroblast proliferation and collagen or extracellular-matrix expression assays.
  • Matrix metalloproteinase, wound-model and tissue-remodeling research.
  • Copper-dependent oxidative-stress and inflammatory-signaling studies.

Scientific context

GHK is the tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine. When coordinated to copper(II), GHK-Cu has been investigated in cell and preclinical models involving fibroblast proliferation, collagen and matrix-protein expression, matrix metalloproteinases, angiogenesis and inflammatory signaling.

Storage and handling

Store a mixed or in-use research pen refrigerated at 2–8 °C (36–46 °F). Keep unused pens cold until their expiry date, protect them from direct light, and never freeze them.
