GHK-Cu is the copper(II)-binding tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine, a naturally occurring sequence with high affinity for copper ions
GHK-Cu is used for skin rejuvenation, wound healing support, hair restoration, and tissue repair
There is also ongoing research into peptide activity in areas such as growth hormone release, metabolic regulation, and skin appearance
