Research & Mechanisms

1. Skin Remodeling and Wound Healing Studies indicate that GHK-Cu can stimulate the production of decorin, a proteoglycan involved in the regulation of collagen synthesis. Research suggests it may accelerate wound closure and improve the biomechanical strength of healing tissues by promoting the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis) and increasing the expression of antioxidant enzymes.

2. Anti-Inflammatory Properties GHK-Cu has been observed to suppress the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and reduce oxidative damage in tissue samples. This action suggests a protective role against cellular stress and age-related degradation of dermal structures.

3. Hair Follicle Research Investigative models have shown that GHK-Cu may influence hair follicle size and inhibit follicle miniaturization, suggesting potential applications in research related to hair growth cycles and follicle health.
