Description
GHK-Cu (Glycyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine:Copper(II)) is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide first identified in human plasma. It is studied in preclinical research for its role in copper-dependent enzymatic activity, extracellular matrix remodeling, and gene expression modulation.
Research indicates that GHK-Cu modulates the activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), stimulates collagen and glycosaminoglycan synthesis, and influences the expression of multiple genes involved in tissue remodeling. It serves as a model compound for studying peptide-metal interactions and copper-dependent biological processes.
