AHK-Cu | Alanine-Histidine-Lysine Copper Complex | Research Grade

AHK-Cu is a copper-binding tripeptide. PerformanceLabsUK supplies it strictly as a research reference material for in vitro laboratory investigation. Researchers must not use AHK-Cu for human or veterinary purposes.

AHK-Cu shares a structural relationship with GHK-Cu, including the copper chelation capacity that defines this peptide family, yet it presents a distinct amino acid sequence. For this reason, researchers have studied AHK-Cu for its potential role in promoting collagen synthesis, wound repair signalling, and cellular regeneration in dermal and connective tissue models.

AHK-Cu Research Interest Areas

• Researchers are investigating angiogenic signalling and fibroblast activation in wound healing studies.
• Scientists are studying AHK-Cu alongside GHK-Cu in comparative models that examine differential receptor affinity and tissue remodelling activity.
• Hair follicle biology research also explores this peptide for its potential follicular regeneration signalling.
• Additionally, investigators are examining antioxidant properties linked to copper-mediated superoxide dismutase activity.

Primary Research Areas: Copper Peptide Chemistry | Dermal Fibroblast Research | Wound-Healing Models | Hair Follicle Biology | Antioxidant Pathway Studies

PerformanceLabsUK independently tests every AHK-Cu batch through a third-party laboratory and publishes a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis in our COA Library. Researchers investigating related copper peptides may also wish to review our GHK-Cu research peptide. For structural and chemical reference data, see the independent PubChem listing for AHK-Cu.
