GHK-Cu is a small cosmetic peptide that naturally binds copper. It is found in human blood, saliva, and urine. In laboratory research, scientists use it to observe how cells respond to copper and small peptides.

GHK-Cu is a small cosmetic peptide that naturally binds copper. It is found in human blood, saliva, and urine. In laboratory research, scientists use it to observe how cells respond to copper and small peptides.

Several copper-peptide complexes occur naturally. In human plasma, the level of GHK-Cu is about 200 ng/ml at age 20. By the age of 60, the level drops to 80 ng/ml. In humans, GHK-Cu is proposed to promote wound healing, attraction of immune cells, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, stimulation of collagen and glycosaminoglycan synthesis in skin fibroblasts and promotion of blood vessels growth. Recent studies revealed its ability to modulate expression of a large number of human genes. Synthetic GHK-Cu is used in cosmetics as a reparative and anti-aging ingredient.
