Description
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper peptide complex found in human plasma, saliva, and urine. It exhibits potent regenerative and protective effects including stimulation of collagen and glycosaminoglycan synthesis, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and wound healing properties. GHK-Cu enhances skin remodeling and has shown promising potential in tissue repair, anti-aging, and modulation of gene expression involved in DNA repair and cancer suppression.
