Compound profile
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper complex of the tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine, first isolated from human plasma. Plasma levels decline markedly with age.
It is one of the best-characterised peptides in dermal research, studied for collagen synthesis, wound repair and antioxidant gene expression.
Alpine Pharma supplies GHK-CU at 99.6% purity, verified by HPLC and mass spectrometry. Each lot is released only after independent assay and ships with its certificate of analysis.
