Reported activities include fibroblast stimulation, controlled intracellular copper delivery, modulation of collagen and glycosaminoglycan synthesis, and broad changes in gene expression across stress-response and tissue-repair networks
GHK-Cu supplies the extracellular matrix remodeling via collagen, glycosaminoglycans and the MMP-TIMP system as well as an antioxidant and growth-factor-inducing component
