Wholesale AHK-Cu — Bulk Research Supply

Overview

AHK-Cu (copper tripeptide-3) is the tripeptide Ala-His-Lys complexed with a copper(II) ion. It is studied alongside GHK-Cu in laboratory models of matrix signaling, follicular biology and vascular dynamics.

History

Copper-binding tripeptides were identified as plasma-derived activity fractions in the 1970s, with GHK-Cu characterized first. AHK-Cu was subsequently synthesized as a related copper-carrier tripeptide and has been studied largely in dermal and follicular research models.

Key Areas of Research

• Matrix signaling: collagen and elastin pathways
• Follicular research models
• Angiogenic signaling: VEGF pathway
• Copper transport and chelation chemistry
