Simultaneously, the acidic pH that vitamin C requires (around 3.5) destabilizes copper peptides, which prefer neutral pH environments
In GHK-Cu, copper is a co-factor, enhancing the peptide's stability and biological activity
Research applications The combined study of BPC-157 and TB-500 is primarily relevant for research questions where cell recruitment, migration, and coordinated remodeling are limiting factors
