Results from this study3

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone3

In this study, GHK-Cu was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking GHK-Cu.

  1. 01LabNot a test of GHK-Cu aloneIn vitro (cells)Activity measurement

    Through controlled release of copper ions, the GHK‑Cu loaded coating inhibited adhesion of bacteria.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests, the GHK‑Cu loaded coating reduced bacteria sticking to its surface.

    Summary
    Through the controllable release of Cu2+, the coating achieved not only inhibited adhesion of bacteria
    1 context sentence
    Summary · context
    In this study, we prepared mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) and MSN-COOH with uniform sphere size (~100 nm) and developed multifunctional chitosan coatings loaded with MSN@GHK-Cu (glycyl-L-histidyl-l-lysine-Cu2+) as a suitable strategy by electrophoretic deposition (EPD).

    In this study, GHK-Cu was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking GHK-Cu.
