* Cysteine and L-Methionine - Amino acids known to thicken hair
-glutamyl kinase (GK) encoded by PRO1 in eukaryotes or proB in prokaryotes, the first enzyme in proline biosynthetic pathway, catalyzes the formation of intermediate -glutamyl phosphate, which if accumulated could partially react with cysteine to generate -GC, and then Gsh2 adds glycine to -GC to form GSH
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring tripeptide that binds copper ions and has proposed roles in tissue repair, anti-inflammation, and follicle regeneration
Thus, considering the quite rapid presentation of the beneficial effect of BPC 157 in wound healing, it is likely indicative that the expression of all of the genes Akt1, Braf, Egfr, Egr1, Grb2, Hdac7, Kras, Mapk1, Mapk3, Mapk14, Nos3, Pik3cd, Plcg1, Prkcg, Ptk2, Pxn, Src, Srf, and Vegfa is increased at the 10-min interval
GHK-Cu + Scalp Massage Protocol A 2019 study found that 4 minutes of daily standardized scalp massage over 24 weeks produced measurable increases in hair thickness
