AHK-Cu (Ala-His-Lys Copper) is a synthetic copper tripeptide complex widely utilized in laboratory research for its potential roles in hair follicle stimulation, skin regeneration, and collagen synthesis. As a copper-bound peptide, it is studied for its ability to influence angiogenesis, fibroblast activity, and extracellular matrix production in preclinical dermal and follicular models. Researchers explore AHK-Cu in the context of hair growth, wound healing, and anti-aging skin biology.
At AetherPeakPeptides.com, AHK-Cu is supplied in high-purity 200mg lyophilized form for advanced dermatological and regenerative investigations. This copper peptide is valued for its stability and targeted cellular signaling properties in research settings.

AHK-Cu combines the tripeptide Ala-His-Lys with copper ions, enhancing its biological activity in experimental models.
Mechanism of Action in Research Models
In laboratory studies, AHK-Cu is investigated for its ability to deliver copper ions to cells while the peptide sequence modulates signaling pathways. It is explored for stimulating vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), promoting fibroblast proliferation, and supporting collagen and elastin production. The copper component is studied for its enzymatic cofactor roles in antioxidant defense and tissue remodeling.
Key Research Applications
AHK-Cu is commonly employed in studies examining:
- Hair follicle proliferation and growth cycle regulation
- Dermal collagen synthesis and skin firmness
- Wound healing and tissue regeneration models
- Angiogenesis and vascular support research
- Anti-aging and photo-damaged skin recovery
