AHK-Cu 1g
AHK-Cu | 1g | Copper-Binding Tripeptide Complex (Powder)
For In Vitro Research Use Only — Not for Human or Veterinary Use
Description:
AHK-Cu is a synthetic copper-peptide complex composed of the tripeptide Ala-His-Lys chelated with copper ions. It has been studied in vitro for its potential ability to influence cellular regeneration pathways, fibroblast activity, collagen expression, and various cyto-protective mechanisms.
In laboratory models, AHK-Cu is examined for its roles in cell signaling, antioxidant defense, and tissue-repair processes, particularly in contexts involving dermal, vascular, and cellular-stress research systems. This listing provides 1 gram of purified AHK-Cu in powder form for controlled in vitro experimentation.
