Even though these patients are not paying the full price, theyre still paying $60 or more for a prescription and a lot of the prescriptions were closer to $100 a month and I think that may still be unaffordable for patients. Sinaiko said the results highlight significant challenges in the healthcare system
They added GHK-Cu in concentrations of 10 M to 10 M and measured: Collagen synthesis (by radioactive proline incorporation) Non-collagen protein synthesis Cell proliferation What they found: Stimulation of collagen synthesis by 70 % at the optimal concentration of 10 M (1 nM) The effect was NOT dependent on increased proliferation, fibroblasts increased production per cell Background: GHK without copper had a dramatically weaker effect , Cu is critical Reversibility: After removing GHK-Cu, synthesis returned to baseline Why it matters: This is the fundamental mechanistic study that documented the effect of GHK-Cu on collagen
The relative gene expression was determined using the 2 Ct method 14
