The copper ion confers catalytic activity: GHK acts as a copper chaperone, delivering Cu to cuproenzymes including superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1), cytochrome c oxidase (Complex IV), lysyl oxidase (LOX), and ceruloplasmin
They carry signals between cells, telling your body what to build, repair, produce, and regulate
It is an anti-ulcer peptide (9-12), interacting with NO-system (13), and, unlike other peptides, it is particularly stable in gastric juice (14) and is used consistently without a carrier (9-11, 13-24), being safe in patients with the inflammatory bowel disease (coded PL-10, PLD 116, PL 14736) (21)
Imagine this: Copper Peptides are like the super-smart architects and builders for your skin
