Copper-binding tripeptide studied in follicular and dermal research.
Overview
AHK-Cu (alanyl-histidyl-lysine copper) is a copper-binding tripeptide closely related to GHK-Cu, studied primarily in hair follicle and dermal papilla research rather than general dermal remodelling.
Research applications
- Dermal papilla cell proliferation in research models
- Follicular growth phase signalling
- VEGF expression and local microcirculation
- Collagen synthesis pathways
- Copper delivery to the cell
Mechanism of action
Binds a copper ion through its histidine residue and carries it into the cell. Research reports upregulation of VEGF and stimulation of dermal papilla cells, the population governing follicular cycling.
