PD is the second most common NDD and is characterized by progressive loss of dopaminergic and specific non-dopaminergic neurons and the presence of Lewy bodies, which mainly consist of abnormally aggregated -synuclein
In dermal fibroblast cultures, GHK-Cu has been shown to stimulate procollagen, glycosaminoglycan, and decorin synthesis, and has been characterized for antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects in neuronal and macrophage cell models

Peptides are short chains of amino acids that function as precise biological messengers, signaling cells to perform specific functions like stimulating growth hormone release or accelerating tissue repair
It details the peptides role in stimulating blood vessel and nerve outgrowth, increasing the synthesis of collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycans, and supporting dermal fibroblast function
