01WHAT TO TRACK

GHK Multi-System Mechanism

01
🔬
Gene Expression
Activates 31.2% of aging-reversal genes. Upregulates collagen I, III, elastin synthesis. Reduces inflammatory gene expression
02
🔬
Antioxidant Defense
Upregulates SOD1, SOD2 (superoxide dismutase). Activates catalase and glutathione peroxidase. Reduces oxidative stress in aging tissue
03
🔬
Tissue Repair
Promotes nerve fiber growth and repair. Accelerates wound healing and angiogenesis. Lung and liver protective effects in models
02BACKGROUND

Key Research Data

Proportion of aging-reversal genes activated by GHK in genome-wide expression studies.

Age-related decline

Reduction in plasma GHK concentration from age 20 to 60 — a key aging biomarker.

Topical concentration

GHK concentration range used in skin care formulations with clinical evidence for collagen effects.

03WHAT TO TRACK

Primary Applications

01
🔬
Skin anti-aging — collagen, elastin, barrier function via topical or subcutaneous use
02
🔬
Systemic longevity — gene expression modulation, antioxidant defense, tissue repair
03
🧬
Lung and liver protection — GHK shows tissue-protective effects in fibrosis models
04DEEP DIVE

GHK Protocol Overview

Note: GHK-Cu (copper-chelated form) is preferred for skin applications. GHK alone is used for systemic protocols. Both are research compounds. Track all skin, energy, and biomarker responses in the Shotlee app.
