Re: IMPORTANT NEWS! GHK-Cu Study on Acute Lung Injury
good news. Dr Pickart mentioned that some firm plan to make CHK-CU in capsules/tablets, is this work going on?

Re: IMPORTANT NEWS! GHK-Cu Study on Acute Lung Injury
We are very busy writing a book on GHK and its actions. This takes all of our time. I hope some group develops the use of GHK-copper for COPD. The recent paper 2016 indicates that GHK-copper should be able to help damaged lungs.

GHK's Role in Novel Therapeutics for Emphysema
Novel Therapeutics for Emphysema We have followed with great interest recent data on gene expression signature of emphysema-related lung destruction and its reversal by the tripeptide GHK - Genome Medicine CLICK HERE Excerpt: "As the CMap examined the effect of GHK in cancer cell lines, we next sought to verify the effect of GHK treatment in a cell type more relevant to emphysema pathogenesis. We utilized human lung fibroblasts because fibroblasts are the major interstitial cell within the...

Oncotarget. 2016 Aug 10 . doi: 10.18632/oncotarget.11168. [Epub ahead of print] The tri-peptide GHK -Cu complex ameliorates lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury in mice. Park JR 1, 2 , Lee H 1 , Kim SI 3 , Yang SR 1 . Author information Abstract The tripeptide-copper complex glycyl-l-histidyl-l-lysine-Cu (II) ( GHK -Cu) is involved in wound healing and tissue remodeling.

Reversal of Emphysema-Related Lung Destruction?
Emphysema-Related Lung Destruction and its Reversal by GHK (Genome Medicine) EXCERPT: "Treatment of human fibroblasts with GHK recapitulated TGFβ-induced gene-expression patterns, led to the organization of the actin cytoskeleton, and elevated the expression of integrin β1. Furthermore, addition of GHK or TGFβ restored collagen I contraction and remodeling by fibroblasts derived from COPD lungs compared to fibroblasts from former smokers without COPD... Furthermore, [it was shown] that by...
