Collagen type II: From biosynthesis to advanced biomaterials for cartilage engineering [PDF]

Biomaterials and Biosystems, 2021
Collagen type II is the major constituent of cartilage tissue. Yet, cartilage engineering approaches are primarily based on collagen type I devices that are associated with suboptimal functional therapeutic outcomes. Herein, we briefly describe cartilage'

Efficacy and tolerability of native (undenatured) type II collagen supplementation for joint health in healthy volunteers: a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled study [PDF]

Nutrition Journal
Background In non-osteoarthritic individuals, the appearance of joint discomfort with physical activity is a potential indicator of initial joint degeneration. The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of native (undenatured) type-

Undenatured type II collagen for knee osteoarthritis

Annals of Medicine
Introduction: Knee Osteoarthritis (OA) leads to significant pain and reduced function and affects patients’ overall quality of life (QoL). Conservative modalities are the first line of management, resorting to surgery only if they fail.

Bioprinting of Collagen Type I and II via Aerosol Jet Printing for the Replication of Dense Collagenous Tissues

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Collagen has grown increasingly present in bioprinting, however collagen bioprinting has mostly been limited to the extrusion printing of collagen type I to form weak collagen hydrogels.

UC-II® undenatured type II collagen data show retention during functional food and beverage prototype processing

Data in Brief, 2023
Nowadays, collagen is widely used in food and beverage industries to enhance the nutritional and health value of the products. While many see this as an ideal way to incorporate more collagen into their diets, the exposure of these proteins to high ...

Micronutrient optimization for tissue engineered articular cartilage production of type II collagen

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Tissue Engineering of cartilage has been hampered by the inability of engineered tissue to express native levels of type II collagen in vitro. Inadequate levels of type II collagen are, in part, due to a failure to recapitulate the physiological ...

In the quest of the optimal tissue source (porcine male and female articular, tracheal and auricular cartilage) for the development of collagen sponges for articular cartilage

Biomedical Engineering Advances, 2021
Background: In the quest of the ideal material for scaffold fabrication for cartilage engineering, the use of collagen type II has been advocated, as it is the major constituent of cartilage tissue.

Influence of collagen type II and nucleus pulposus cells on aggregation and differentiation of adipose tissue-derived stem cells [PDF]

, 2008
Tissue microenvironment plays a critical role in guiding local stem cell differentiation. Within the intervertebral disc, collagen type II and nucleus pulposus (NP) cells are two major components.

Dynamic compression inhibits cytokine-mediated type II collagen degradation

Osteoarthritis and Cartilage Open, 2022
Objective: To examine the effect of dynamic compressive loading applied intermittently on bovine cartilage explants stimulated with proinflammatory cytokines over 21 days. Design: Cartilage explants were cultured for 21 days with Oncostatin M and TNFα (O

Altered collagen I and premature pulmonary embryonic differentiation in patients with OI type II

Physiological Reports, 2023
Pulmonary hypoplasia and respiratory failure are primary causes of death in patients with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) type II. OI is a genetic skeletal disorder caused by pathogenic variants in genes encoding collagen type I.
