GHK-Cu
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide (Gly-His-Lys, CAS 49557-75-7) found in human plasma, saliva, and urine. The copper coordination complex drives TGF-beta receptor signaling, integrin-mediated cell adhesion, and ROS scavenging through copper-dependent superoxide dismutase-like activity in biochemical assay systems. Its documented influence on extracellular matrix gene expression in fibroblast cultures has made it one of the most widely studied probes in connective tissue signaling biology. Supplied lyophilized for in vitro research use only.
