99% Pure | USA Made | Multi DoseAHK-Cu (Copper Tripeptide-1) is a premium research peptide combining the amino acids alanine-histidine-lysine with a bioavailable copper ion. Widely used in cellular and tissue models, AHK-Cu supports investigations into collagen synthesis, fibroblast proliferation, and angiogenic signaling. Its small tripeptide structure ensures rapid tissue penetration and reliable receptor engagement, while each batch is verified at ≥99% purity and shipped with a full Certificate of Analysis. Labs rely on AHK-Cu for precise studies in dermal repair, wound healing, and hair follicle biology—all under strict “for laboratory research only” protocols.

AHK-Cu, also known as Copper Tripeptide-1, is a synthetically produced peptide that mimics a natural copper-binding sequence found in human plasma. In preclinical research, it’s applied to cultured fibroblasts, keratinocytes, and endothelial cells to study extracellular matrix modulation, antioxidant defenses, and microvascular formation. Its precise copper chelation allows researchers to dissect copper-dependent enzymatic pathways with minimal off-target activity.
Researchers rely on AHK-Cu for its exceptional copper-binding affinity, which precisely activates key enzymatic pathways—like lysyl oxidase and superoxide dismutase—in dermal and follicular models. Its minimal tripeptide structure ensures rapid diffusion into target cells, while rigorous batch testing (≥99% HPLC purity, MS/MS verification, endotoxin screening) guarantees consistency across experiments. Manufactured under ISO-certified conditions, AHK-Cu delivers the confidence labs need for reproducible studies in skin repair, hair growth, and oxidative-stress mitigation.
Unlike longer copper peptides, AHK-Cu combines simplicity and potency by linking alanine-histidine-lysine with a copper ion to drive both collagen synthesis and antioxidant defense within a single molecule. This dual-action profile not only promotes extracellular matrix remodeling and wound closure in vitro but also consistently stimulates VEGF-mediated angiogenesis in endothelial assays. Its demonstrated stability—maintaining >98% integrity in both lyophilized and reconstituted forms—makes AHK-Cu an unmatched peptide for high-precision regenerative research.
