Scientific Name: (Palmitoyl Tripeptide-1) - Pal-GHK Clinical Test Expectation: Wound healing, skin repair, and tissue regeneration. MG Strength: 10mg per vial Detailed Product Information Pal-GHK (also called palmitoyl tripeptide-1 and palmitoyl oligopeptide) is a synthetic peptide known for its effects on collagen, skin health, and skin pigment. It is currently under investigation for its ability to boost collagen synthesis in animal models as well as for its ability to stimulate blood vessel growth. Sequence (Three-Letter Code): Palmitoyl-Gly-His-Lys Molecular formula:C30H54N6O5 Molecular weight: 578.8 g/mol
Research Application: Pal-GHK consists of a palmitic acid residue connected to a fragment of the elastin protein. This fragment, made of the amino acids glycine, histidine, and lysine, is sometimes referred to as GHK. GHK has been shown, in animal models, to stimulate fibroblast growth and reproduction, making if of particular interest for researchers interested in wound healing, skin repair, and tissue regeneration.
Pal-GHK is under active investigation for its ability to enhance skin strength, smoothness, and resilience in animal models. Though GHK is responsible for the actual effects, it is the palmitoyl component that makes it so potent. In fact, the attachment of palmitoyl to GHK is also being researched for its ability to boost skin and cell penetration in animal models, a property that could make the fatty acid useful in other creams and topical ointments in both cosmetic and medical applications.
