Description
AHK-Cu 100mg — copper tripeptide for hair follicle and tissue research in Australia. University-verified ≥99% purity. Same-day Sydney dispatch.
AHK-Cu (Alanine-Histidine-Lysine-Copper) is a copper-binding tripeptide similar in structure to GHK-Cu. The peptide forms a stable complex with copper ions through the histidine imidazole ring, with copper being essential for biological activity.
What the Research Shows
Research has examined AHK-Cu’s effects on hair follicle cells, including dermal papilla cells and outer root sheath keratinocytes. Studies investigate its influence on hair growth signalling and Wnt/β-catenin pathways.
Additional research explores VEGF expression effects and tissue remodelling properties including collagen synthesis and fibroblast activity. Like GHK-Cu, reconstituted solutions should appear slightly blue indicating proper copper binding.
Why Australian Researchers Choose Purpose Labs
