Common name: GHK-Cu, copper tripeptide, copper peptide GHK-Cu Chemical name: glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine: complex with copper(II) Synonyms: Copper peptide GHK-Cu, copper tripeptide-1, GHK-Cu, copper prezatide Peptide sequence: Gly-His-Lys (GHK) CAS number: 49557-75-7 (GHK-Cu)
Anti-Inflammatory Activity: The peptide suppresses the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including TNF-, IL-6, and TGF-1 (when overexpressed), while also reducing oxidative damage
When the gut lining is compromised, patients may experience: Reduced nutrient absorption, limiting resources for tissue repair Increased systemic inflammation, slowing recovery Immune disruption, affecting overall healing This is why some physicians consider gut support as a complement to musculoskeletal recovery, especially after surgery or during inflammation-driven conditions
