Stem Cell Anti-Senescence and Anti-Aging Effects
Other very important anti-aging effects are furthered by encouraging stem cell survival and anti-senescence . Tripeptide-1 ( Copper Tripeptide-1 ) promotes survival of stem cells in the basal epidermis . 53 54 . It has been shown to exhibit important anti-aging effects 55 56 in several tissue types , including skin 57 , and encourages keratinocyte proliferation via stem cell maintenance . 58
Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory Effects
Many of the body ’ s intrinsic antioxidant systems , including Superoxide Dismutase ( SOD ), are induced by Tripeptide-1 ( Copper Tripeptide-1 ) as demonstrated in healing wounds . 59 Free radical damage accelerates aging . 60
Hypoallergenic
Bioactive peptides have been found to be safe and hypoallergenic . 61
Conclusion
Tripeptide-1 ( Copper Tripeptide-1 ) is a molecule that has been and is still known by several chemical and cosmetic names . This short-chain peptide joined with copper has proven to be of great benefit to aesthetics and other medical specialties . It possesses many abilities in skin and other tissues - including initiation of wound repair and regeneration , tissue maintenance and regeneration , improving healing processes , increasing normal collagen synthesis , mitigating scar formation , encouraging DNA repair , anti-neoplastic effects , antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity , anti-aging effects , and stem cell survival . Tripeptide-1 ( Copper Tripeptide-1 ) has great potential for improving post-procedural results and decreasing the velocity of skin aging . It has a remarkable safety profile in that no adverse effects associated with its use have been found despite extensive research over decades .
