Reported findings and study design
150 male Wistar rats; wound-area and healing assessments.
| Measure | Result | Comparison, timing and statistics |
|---|---|---|
| GHK-D-Ala wound area | Approximately 93% lower than control | Day 10 · Reported p<0.001 |
| Interval-specific healing rate | 4.7–5.3-fold higher with GHK-D-Ala | Relative to control; not total healing duration · Days 7–10 |
Animal findings do not establish human efficacy, a human dose, or long-term safety. This is not evidence that GHK-Cu or a GHK-D-Ala copper complex gives the same result. Related reports may share research material; publication counts should not be read as independent replications.
