What is GHK-Cu?

“GHK-Cu, commonly referred to as Copper Peptide, is a naturally occurring tripeptide complex found in plasma and other biological fluids. In laboratory research, it is studied for its role in protein regulation, gene expression, and cellular signaling pathways

Frequently asked questions

Products from DTC Labs do not include usage instructions, as they are strictly for in vitro research and prohibited by law for human or animal use. Misuse or unlawful application will result in permanent denial of service.

Each vial contains exactly what’s shown on the label. For example, a 10mg vial has exactly 10mg of lyophilized peptide. Researchers can divide it into smaller portions—like four 2.5mg measurements—but the total amount remains 10mg.

DTA Labs are supplied as lyophilized powder. They do not come reconstituted, and any extra supplies must be sourced separately for research applications.

In lyophilized powder form, peptides stay stable for up to 2 years. After reconstitution, it should be refrigerated and is generally stable for up to 2 months.

GHK-Cu Overview

GHK-Cu (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine:copper(II)) is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide studied for its role in cellular signaling, tissue remodeling, and repair pathways. In laboratory and preclinical models, GHK-Cu has been associated with modulation of gene expression, angiogenesis, and extracellular matrix activity, making it a valuable tool for research into regenerative biology.

Pickart L. et al. (2015).

History

GHK was first identified in the 1970s in human plasma, where it was observed to decline with age. Subsequent research demonstrated that complexing GHK with copper enhanced its biological activity, particularly in processes related to wound healing and tissue regeneration. Over the years, GHK-Cu has been extensively studied in models of skin biology, angiogenesis, and systemic regulation of gene expression.

GHK-Cu Structure

CAS #: 89030-95-5

Molecular Formula: C₁₄H₂₄CuN₆O₄

Molecular Weight: 340.9 g/mol

PubChem ID: 5311476

Research Findings

GHK-Cu has been studied in structural, dermatological, and systemic models, with research highlighting its effects on collagen synthesis, wound healing, and tissue repair. Studies also note its role in skin regeneration, hair growth, and anti-inflammatory activity in preclinical settings.

Key Areas of Research:

• Structural: collagen, matrix, connective tissue

• Dermatological: wound healing, skin regeneration, hair growth

• Systemic: inflammation, repair, recovery

Together, these findings suggest broad experimental potential for GHK-Cu across structural, dermatological, and systemic pathways. By supporting collagen formation and tissue repair while modulating inflammatory responses, GHK-Cu provides a versatile platform for research into regeneration, skin biology, and systemic recovery in laboratory models.
