On the other hand, AHK-Cu, or alanine-histidyl-lysine copper, is a synthetic tripeptide engineered to replicate and amplify specific mechanisms found in naturally occurring copper peptides
Younger individuals with a significant family history or other predisposing factors may warrant earlier or more intensive screening protocols
Protein priority: Hair is protein
Pickart 2015 BioMed Res Int sequenced by Affymetrix chip the effects of 10 nM GHK-Cu on human fibroblasts after 24h: 4192 significantly modulated genes, including activation of DNA repair programmes (NBN, BRCA1), regeneration (collagens, elastin, integrins), antioxidant defence (glutathione peroxidase, SOD, peroxiredoxins) and anti-inflammatory modulation (reduction of TNF-alpha, IL-6, IL-8)
He and Christian Roth, a noted endocrinologist at Seattle Childrens Hospital, have created a novel peptide treatment called GEP44
