Molecular mechanisms and potential clinical significance of S-glutathionylation
Copper Chelation and Delivery At the most fundamental level, GHK functions as a copper chelator and delivery system - the tripeptide binds Cu with exceptionally high affinity (binding constant approximately 10 M, among the highest known for biological copper chelators), forming a square planar coordination complex where the copper ion is coordinated by the nitrogen atoms of the terminal amino group, the two peptide bonds, and the imidazole nitrogen of histidine
GHK-Cu antioxidant approach: Upregulates endogenous antioxidant enzymes (SOD, catalase, glutathione peroxidase) rather than providing antioxidants directly
