{"product_id":"ahk-cu-copper-tripeptide-50mg","title":"AHK-Cu 50mg (Copper Tripeptide)","description":"\u003cp\u003eAHK-Cu 50mg is a synthetic copper-binding tripeptide supplied as a lyophilised research material. It combines the amino-acid sequence alanine–histidine–lysine, abbreviated AHK, with copper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHelix Bio supplies AHK-Cu in the UK exclusively for controlled laboratory and analytical research involving copper–peptide interactions, cellular signalling and experimental hair-follicle and dermal-papilla models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAHK-Cu Research Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAHK-Cu belongs to the copper tripeptide class of research materials. The histidine-containing peptide sequence can coordinate a copper ion, creating a peptide–metal complex with properties distinct from the unbound AHK peptide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLaboratory studies have examined AHK-Cu in relation to copper transport, peptide–metal binding, cellular responses and experimental signalling pathways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAHK-Cu should not be confused with GHK-Cu. Although both are copper-binding tripeptides, they have different amino-acid sequences and must be treated as separate research compounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHair-Follicle and Dermal-Papilla Research\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAHK-Cu has been investigated in isolated human hair-follicle and dermal-papilla cell models.
