By mimicking the action of certain triggering molecules and hormones, such as ghrelin, they trigger the body specifically the pituitary gland to produce and release its own natural growth hormones, in a consistent, stable way
The skin-specific mechanisms of GHK-Cu include stimulation of Type I and Type III procollagen synthesis, increased production of dermatan sulfate and other glycosaminoglycans, activation of the enzyme lysyl oxidase (which cross-links newly formed collagen), reduction of matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1, collagenase) activity, and anti-inflammatory suppression of TNF-alpha-induced IL-6 secretion
