AHK-Cu 50mg
AHK-Cu is a copper complex of the tripeptide L-alanyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine. It has been studied in cultured human hair follicle cells and hair follicles maintained outside the body, with a focus on cell activity related to hair growth.
In simple terms: researchers study AHK-Cu to explore how copper peptides affect hair follicles and the cells that help regulate hair growth.
This product is supplied for controlled laboratory research. Refer to the individual listing and batch documentation for the vial strength and product specifications.

What Is AHK-Cu Studied For?
Preclinical and laboratory research only
Hair follicle activity: A study examined how AHK-Cu affected human hair follicles maintained in a laboratory setting.
Dermal papilla cells: Researchers investigated AHK-Cu’s effects on cells at the base of the hair follicle that participate in hair growth signalling.
Cell growth and survival: The same study explored changes in dermal papilla cell proliferation and processes involved in cell survival. Increased hair cell growth.
