Because GHK-Cu is researched for regenerative, tissue-remodeling, collagen-related, and cellular-signaling pathways, research involving active or suspected malignancies, copper-metabolism conditions, liver-related investigations, or complex dermatological research models may warrant additional monitoring and individualized evaluation
Cuproptosis is a copper-driven form of PCD that results in mitochondrial proteotoxic stress due to excess intracellular copper, mainly mediated by FDX1, and has been demonstrated to possess tumor-suppressing properties in cancer models (143, 144)

Stacking it with growth hormone secretagogues makes sense only if you time administration to the endogenous IGF-1 surge that follows the GH pulse
