These effects were particularly notable in the context of overexpression of miR-339-5p following brain injuries such as bleeds and strokes, underscoring GHK-Cu's potential as a research subject in the context of neurodegeneration
This includes wound healing trials, skin rejuvenation studies, and tissue repair research across multiple organ systems (skin, lungs, liver, bone, stomach lining)
