GHK-Cu is a copper-binding peptide formed when the GHK peptide binds to a copper ion. This complex significantly enhances the biological activity of GHK, especially in skin regeneration and tissue repair. GHK-Cu has been widely studied in dermatology and regenerative medicine for its ability to...Read More

GHK (Glycyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine) is a naturally occurring tripeptide found in human plasma, saliva, and urine. It plays an important role in tissue repair, skin regeneration, and wound healing. GHK levels are highest during youth and gradually decline with age. Reduced levels are associated with slower healing,...Read More

Advances in metabolic and longevity medicine have identified several peptides and metabolic regulators that enhance mitochondrial function, improve fat metabolism, and optimize cellular energy production. Among the most promising compounds are SLU-PP-332, MOTS-C, and 5-Amino-1MQ. While all three support metabolic health, they work through different...Read More

MOTS-C (Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA-c) is a mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) that plays a critical role in regulating metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and cellular energy balance. Unlike most peptides encoded by nuclear DNA, MOTS-C is encoded by mitochondrial DNA, highlighting its unique role...Read More

What is 5-Amino-1MQ? 5-Amino-1MQ (5-Amino-1-methylquinolinium) is a metabolic regulator that works by inhibiting nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), an enzyme involved in energy metabolism and fat storage. NNMT plays a role in regulating NAD+ metabolism, cellular energy production, and metabolic efficiency. Elevated NNMT activity has been associated...Read More
