Literature
Research context
GHK is a tripeptide present in human plasma that declines with age, and which binds copper(II) with high affinity. The complex is widely studied in dermal fibroblast models for its association with collagen and glycosaminoglycan synthesis, metalloproteinase regulation, and gene-expression profiles related to tissue remodelling.
