Common questions
About this material
Answers describe what the published research examines and where the evidence is limited. They are not claims of any effect; this material is supplied for laboratory research use only.
What is AHK-Cu?
AHK-Cu is the copper complex of the tripeptide alanine-histidine-lysine, a lesser-known relative of GHK-Cu. It is supplied here as an analytical-grade reference material for laboratory research use only.
How strong is the evidence for AHK-Cu specifically?
The evidence for AHK-Cu specifically is thin. The direct research provided is a single in-vitro study on hair-follicle cells. Much of the broader copper-peptide science comes from its cousin GHK-Cu, so AHK-Cu is best regarded as lightly studied and early-stage.
How is AHK-Cu different from GHK-Cu?
AHK-Cu and GHK-Cu are both copper-carrying tripeptides, but with different amino-acid sequences (alanine-histidine-lysine versus glycine-histidine-lysine). GHK-Cu has a far larger research literature; AHK-Cu is often studied by comparison to it, especially in hair-focused work.
What do researchers study it for?
Chiefly hair-follicle biology, based on the in-vitro proliferation study, plus skin-repair questions carried over from the copper-peptide family. These are laboratory observations, not demonstrated outcomes in people.
How is it supplied and tested?
AHK-Cu is supplied as a lyophilized powder for laboratory research use only, with identity and purity checked by third-party testing through Vanguard. It is not a cosmetic, drug, or supplement and is not intended for human or veterinary use.
