AHK-Cu 100mg – Copper Peptide for Hair and Skin Research
AHK-Cu is a biomimetic copper peptide that has garnered interest in dermatological and regenerative research. Its sequence, Alanine-Histidine-Lysine-Copper, is known for its potential to stimulate hair follicle activity and enhance skin repair mechanisms.
Composition and Function
This peptide is a complex of copper ions bound to the tripeptide AHK. The copper ion is essential for the peptide’s biological activity, acting as a cofactor for various enzymes involved in tissue remodeling and cellular signaling. AHK-Cu is believed to promote the production of extracellular matrix components like collagen and elastin.
Research Applications
In research settings, AHK-Cu is studied for its effects on hair growth, wound healing, and skin rejuvenation. It is used in assays to investigate its role in angiogenesis, fibroblast proliferation, and the regulation of inflammatory responses. It is a key compound in studies related to dermal health and repair.
Storage and Handling
Store AHK-Cu in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. To maintain its stability, keep the peptide at -20°C for long-term storage. Ensure the vial is sealed tightly to prevent moisture absorption.
