What Is It?

GHK-Cu explained simply

GHK-Cu (Glycyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine Copper) is a naturally occurring peptide that was first isolated from human plasma in the 1970s. It binds tightly to copper ions and has since been studied extensively for its role in skin health, wound healing, and tissue repair.

What makes GHK-Cu remarkable is the breadth of its documented effects in research. It has been studied for its ability to stimulate collagen synthesis, promote wound healing, reduce inflammation, act as an antioxidant, and even influence gene expression in ways that may support healthy aging.

Mechanism

How GHK-Cu works

Primary Mechanism

GHK-Cu works by binding copper ions and delivering them to cells, facilitating enzymatic reactions critical to tissue repair. It activates pathways involving collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycan production, and modulates gene expression in ways associated with skin regeneration and anti-aging.

Research Context

The research on GHK-Cu spans multiple decades and institutions. Studies have examined its effects in preclinical and clinical settings. Our Education Center contains curated summaries of the most relevant published literature. As with all research peptides, individual results vary and the evidence base continues to evolve.

Administration

The appropriate administration method, dosage, and protocol for GHK-Cu is determined through the BRAVO1 physician review process based on your individual health profile and wellness goals. Do not self-administer any peptide protocol without physician oversight.
