GHK-Cu is one of the most extensively studied bioactive peptides in skin biology research. Published research documents its effects on collagen and decorin synthesis, stem cell attraction, antioxidant enzyme regulation, and inflammatory pathway modulation. Studies have demonstrated activity in over 4,000 gene expression pathways, with particular research focus on tissue remodeling, DNA repair mechanisms, and fibroblast proliferation. Topical GHK-Cu is used in commercial cosmetic applications, while injectable forms remain research-grade.
