[7] [8] It turned out that this effect was due to a small peptide factor that behaved similarly to the synthetic peptide glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine (GHK)
Optional Boosters: After microneedling (0.250.5 mm), apply a light layer to accelerate healing and collagen induction
GHK further inhibited TGF-1, p-Smad2, p-Smad3, and IGF-1 expression, indicating its potential as a subject of further research in pulmonary fibrosis by targeting the TGF-1/Smad 2/3 and IGF-1 pathways
However, due to the study's small sample size and lack of consistent grouping based on diagnosis or diet, the results need further investigation
