The peptide itself is prepared by a licensed compounding pharmacy, since the original FDA-approved drug is no longer manufactured or sold
The deepest body of mechanistic work on GHK-Cu has come from Loren Pickart and collaborators, who have published extensively on its biology across more than four decades (Pickart et al., 2015) In preclinical research, GHK-Cu has been associated with effects on collagen and glycosaminoglycan synthesis in dermal fibroblast models, on hair-follicle morphology in rodent and ex-vivo skin studies, and on expression of genes involved in tissue remodeling
