Copper tripeptide (acetate)

• Description:

  Copper tripeptide (GHK-Cu) acetate is a tripeptide. During wound healing, Copper tripeptide acetate may be freed from existing extracellular proteins via proteolysis and serves as a chemoattractant for inflammatory and endothelial cells. Copper tripeptide acetate has been shown to increase messenger RNA production for collagen, elastin, proteoglycans, and glycosaminoglycans in fibroblasts. Copper tripeptide acetate is a natural modulator of multiple cllular pathways in skin regeneration[1].
