AHK-Cu
Copper Hair Peptide
Size: 50mg
AHK-Cu (copper tripeptide-3) is a synthetic copper-chelated tripeptide, alanyl-histidyl-lysine bound to copper(II) — the alanine analog of GHK-Cu, studied most often in hair-follicle and dermal papilla research.
AHK-Cu (Copper Tripeptide-3)
Ala-His-Lys tripeptide chelated 1:1 to a copper(II) ion
Differs from GHK-Cu by a single alanine-for-glycine substitution at position 1
Studied for dermal papilla cell proliferation and hair-follicle elongation
The substitution shifts its research focus toward follicle models
Referenced alongside GHK-Cu in collagen and vascularization research
