Limited Human DataAlso known as: Copper tripeptide-1, copper peptide
Copper-binding tripeptide
- How it works
- A naturally occurring copper-binding peptide studied in laboratory and small human settings for roles in skin remodeling and wound-related signaling pathways.
- Known risks
- Topical use is generally well tolerated in studies; local irritation possible. Data from large, long-term human trials are limited.
- Contraindications
- Known hypersensitivity; insufficient data in pregnancy/breastfeeding.
- Drug interactions
- Not well characterized due to limited human data.
