<p>There is disclosed stable copper(I) complexes and methods relating thereto. The stable copper(I) complexes comprise a copper(I) ion complexed by a multi-dentate ligand which favors the +1 oxidation state for copper. Methods of this invention include the use of the stable copper(I) complexes as wound healing agents, anti-oxidative agents, anti-inflammatory agents, lipid modulating agents, signal transduction modulating agents, hair growth agents, and anti-viral agents. Exemplary stable copper(I) complexes include neocuproine copper(I) and bathocuproine disulfonic acid copper(I).</p> |
