AHK-Cu is a close relative of GHK-Cu in which alanine replaces glycine. That single change shifts its research profile: while GHK-Cu dominates collagen and skin literature, AHK-Cu is studied mainly in hair follicle biology.
Pyo et al. (2007, Arch Pharm Res) reported that AHK-Cu promoted elongation of cultured human hair follicles and proliferation of dermal papilla cells, with reduced apoptosis.
Like GHK-Cu, its activity is studied in relation to copper delivery and extracellular-matrix signalling.
Honest caveat: the findings above come from published laboratory and preclinical research, or from clinical studies of the compound class. They describe what has been studied, not what this product will do.
