GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding peptide complex that functions as an endogenous signalling molecule involved in cellular regulation and copper transport. It consists of the tripeptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine chelated with a divalent copper ion, forming a stable complex capable of facilitating the controlled movement and utilisation of copper within biological systems. In research settings, the biological activity of GHK-Cu is attributed to both the peptide sequence and the physiological roles of the bound copper ion.
Copper is an essential trace element that supports numerous enzymatic reactions and structural proteins involved in antioxidant defence, extracellular matrix maintenance, and normal cellular metabolism. As a carrier of bioavailable copper, GHK-Cu is widely studied for its role in regulating copper homeostasis and influencing signalling pathways associated with cell growth, differentiation, and tissue remodelling.
In preclinical and laboratory models, GHK-Cu has been investigated for its effects on gene expression, extracellular matrix regulation, oxidative stress responses, and cellular renewal pathways. The biological responses reported in experimental systems are influenced by factors including peptide concentration, duration of exposure, cell type, and study design, making GHK-Cu a valuable research compound for exploring peptide–metal interactions and copper-dependent cellular signalling in both in vitro and in vivo models.
