Across the literature the compound appears under several names GHK-Cu, GHK-copper, the formal Glycyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine copper complex, the cosmetic-industry INCI name Copper Tripeptide-1, and the formal chemistry-context Cu(II)-GHK
Defining the neuromolecular action of myo-inositol: application to obsessive-compulsive disorder
At concentrations commonly used topically (0.2-2%) GHK-Cu is expected to be compatible with a variety of aqueous vehicles
The compound binds HGF with sub-nanomolar affinity (Kd 65 pM) and is investigated as a synaptogenic research molecule with notable properties unusual for a peptide: oral bioavailability and blood-brain barrier permeability
