Description and specifications
Description
AHK-Cu is a copper-bound tripeptide based on the sequence Ala-His-Lys. In research models, the complex is investigated for its role in skin biology, the extracellular matrix and copper-dependent cellular processes. Supplied as a lyophilised powder for laboratory use. For research use only (in vitro / laboratory use). Not for consumption, diagnostic or therapeutic use.
Research summary
AHK-Cu is a copper-bound tripeptide based on the sequence Ala-His-Lys. It is often discussed alongside other copper peptides in skin- and hair-related laboratory research. Directly published documentation is narrower than for GHK-Cu, so this page should be read conservatively.
Level of evidence: There is some direct in vitro literature on AHK-Cu, but much of the broader copper peptide research concerns other sequences such as GHK or DAHK.
This information is written for a laboratory and research context. The product is not intended for consumption, diagnostics or therapeutic use.

Copper peptides can bind copper ions and influence cellular processes in skin and matrix models. For AHK-Cu, the most direct research relates to dermal papilla cells and hair growth models in vitro. Related GHK/DAHK literature describes copper binding and redox properties, but is not automatically documentation for AHK-Cu.
