Mechanism of Action

GHK-Cu modulates expression of over 4,000 human genes: upregulates collagen, elastin, proteoglycan synthesis; downregulates inflammatory TNF-α and IL-6. Copper coordination enables SOD (superoxide dismutase) activation, providing antioxidant cytoprotection.

Research Protocol Reference

For laboratory research use only — not for human or veterinary use.

💧

Reconstitution

Add sterile bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol) slowly against the vial wall. Gently swirl — do not vortex. Allow 5 min for complete dissolution.

🧊

Storage

Store solution-phase at -20°C. Post-reconstitution: maintain at 2–8°C, use within 28 days. Protect from light. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

📐

Administration

SubQ or IM administration in standard research protocols. Insulin syringe recommended for precise dosing. Refer to published literature for compound-specific protocols.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is GHK-Cu?

GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring human tripeptide (Gly-His-Lys) complexed with copper, found in plasma, saliva, and urine. Modulates 4,000+ genes relevant to skin remodelling, antioxidant defence, and anti-inflammatory pathways. Research use only.

Dose per Mindtek GHK-Cu vial?

Each vial contains 20mg. Supplied in 10-vial kits.

Is GHK-Cu the same as copper peptide serum?

Topical serums contain GHK-Cu at <0.001%. Mindtek GHK-Cu is research-grade solution-phase peptide at defined concentration for laboratory investigation. Research use only.
