Cosmetic Grade Skin Repair CAS 49557-75-7 GHK Cu Copper Peptide Powder

1. Clinical research has made it clear that copper peptides are antioxidants, nutrients that counteract the oxidizing effects of environmental particles called free radicals. It stimulates collagen, chondroitin sulfate, and the small proteoglycan as well as a string of other chemicals.
2. Copper peptides also restores replicative vitality to fibroblasts after radiation therapy. The molecule attracts immune and endothelial cells to the site of an injury. It accelerates wound-healing of the skin, hair follicles, gastrointestinal tract, boney tissue, and foot pads of dogs. The same wound healing effects are also detected in rats, mice, and pigs.
3. In cosmetic products, it has been found to tighten loose skin and improve elasticity, skin density, and firmness, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, reduce hyperpigmentation, and increase keratinocyte proliferation.

 

Copper Peptide is also referred to as GHK (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine) peptide. It is present in human plasma, saliva, and urine but declines with age. It is proposed that GHK functions as a complex with copper 2+ which accelerates wound healing and skin repair. GHK stimulates both synthesis and breakdown of collagen and glycosaminoglycans and modulates the activity of both metalloproteinases and their inhibitors.
