GHK-Cu (Copper Tripeptide)

GHK-Cu is a high-purity copper(II) coordination complex of the tripeptide Gly–His–Lys (GHK), widely utilised in controlled in vitro research. It is commonly applied in studies investigating extracellular matrix (ECM) signalling, collagen-related pathways, and cell-surface interactions in non-clinical laboratory environments.

Key Features

Copper(II)-bound tripeptide (GHK) designed for ECM and collagen-pathway research
Suitable for investigating peptide–metal coordination and signalling mechanisms
Lyophilised powder format for enhanced stability and long-term storage
Unit size: 100 mg per vial for flexible experimental use
Manufactured under strict quality control with batch verification

Product Overview

GHK-Cu forms through chelation of copper(II) ions by the tripeptide Gly–His–Lys. Its defined coordination chemistry and biologically relevant peptide structure make it a valuable tool for studying matrix-associated signalling, receptor-adjacent pathways, and peptide–metal interactions in vitro. For laboratory research use only. Not for human or veterinary application.
