GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-peptide complex found in human plasma, saliva, and urine. The tripeptide GHK (Glycine-Histidine-Lysine) binds copper ions with high affinity through the histidine imidazole ring, forming a stable complex essential for its biological activity.
First identified in human plasma in the 1970s, GHK-Cu has been extensively studied for its effects on wound healing, tissue remodelling, and gene expression. Research has documented that GHK-Cu can influence the expression of over 4,000 genes, including those involved in antioxidant responses, DNA repair, and extracellular matrix remodelling.
Studies have examined GHK-Cu’s effects on collagen synthesis, glycosaminoglycan production, and fibroblast function in skin models. Research has also investigated its influence on angiogenesis and blood vessel formation, contributing to our understanding of its wound healing mechanisms.
The copper ion in GHK-Cu is essential for biological activity, serving as a cofactor for various enzymatic processes. Reconstituted solutions should appear slightly blue — this colour is characteristic of copper-peptide complexes and indicates proper copper binding.
