Mechanism and findings

In vitro · Study formulation · Fibroblast cultures

Collagen synthesis

GHK-Cu altered collagen synthesis in cultured fibroblasts independently of cell-number changes; this is not a clinical skin outcome.

Literature findings; refer to the model and formulation studied.

Mechanism of action

GHK-Cu — copper–tripeptide complex. The literature identity must be matched to the documented chemical form and composition of the supplied material.

GHK coordinates copper(II) ions. The fibroblast study examined collagen synthesis at different complex concentrations, distinguishing the response from changes in cell number. These data describe an extracellular-matrix model and do not characterize the purity or analytical activity of a commercial offer.
