This rate limiting step is controlled by the cellular availability of cysteine and GCL activity
As noted in the Wegovy SmPC, severe gastrointestinal adverse reactions may lead to dehydration with potential risk of acute kidney injury
Increases production of stem cells: Research indicates GHK-Cu promotes stem cell activity, supporting tissue regeneration beyond the dermal layer
This doesn't mean they're dangerous, but it means the full risk profile isn't established with the certainty that approved drugs provide
Finally, in vitro work has looked at cellular signaling downstream of 3-AR engagement, providing mechanistic support for the lipolysis-without-hyperglycemia profile that investigators consistently observe
