The collagens represent a family of trimeric extracellular matrix molecules used by cells for structural integrity and other functions. The three alpha chains that form the triple helical part of the molecule are composed of repeating peptide triplets of glycine-X-Y.

Structure-mechanics relationships of collagen fibrils in the Osteogenesis Imperfecta Mouse model [PDF]
The collagen molecule, which is the building block of collagen fibrils, is a triple helix of two α1(I) chains and one α2(I) chain. However, in the severe mouse model of osteogenesis imperfecta (OIM), deletion of the COL1A2 gene results in the ...

A Review of the Effects of Collagen Treatment in Clinical Studies
Collagen, an abundant extracellular matrix protein, has been found to have a lot of pharmaceuticals, medicine, food, and cosmetics applications. Increased knowledge of collagen sources, extraction techniques, structure, and properties in the last decades

Secondary cytotoxicity of (crosslinked) dermal sheep collagen during repeated exposure to human fibroblasts [PDF]
We investigated commercially available dermal sheep collagen either cross-linked with hexamethylenediisocyanate, or cross-linked with glutaraldehyde. In previous in vitro studies we could discriminate primary, i.e. extractable, and secondary cytotoxicity,

3D bioprinting of collagen to rebuild components of the human heart
If I only had a heart 3D bioprinting is still a fairly new technique that has been limited in terms of resolution and by the materials that can be printed. Lee et al.

Mathematical modeling of collagen turnover in biological tissue [PDF]
The final publication is available at Springer via http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s00285-012-0613-yWe present a theoretical and computational model for collagen turnover in soft biological tissues. Driven by alterations in the mechanical environment, collagen

Collagen Hydrolysates for Skin Protection: Oral Administration and Topical Formulation
Antioxidants are molecules that delay or inhibit the oxidation of other molecules. Its use significantly increased in recent years in the diet of people. Natural antioxidants are replacing the use of synthetic antioxidant ingredients due to their safety,

Confined compression of collagen hydrogels [PDF]
Reconstituted collagen hydrogels are often used for in vitro studies of cell-matrix interaction and as scaffolds for tissue engineering. Understanding the mechanical and transport behaviours of collagen hydrogels is therefore extremely important, albeit ...

Fish Collagen: Extraction, Characterization, and Applications for Biomaterials Engineering
The utilization of marine-based collagen is growing fast due to its unique properties in comparison with mammalian-based collagen such as no risk of transmitting diseases, a lack of religious constraints, a cost-effective process, low molecular weight ...
