Collagenase Clostridium Histolyticum in the Treatment of Peyronie’s Disease: Review of a Minimally Invasive Treatment Option [PDF]
The World Journal of Men's Health, 2017 Peyronie’s disease (PD) is an inflammatory disorder characterized by an abnormal collagen deposition in the tunica albuginea of the penis, leading to fibrous and non-compliant plaques that can impede normal erection. Although pharmacological treatments

Gene expression of bacterial collagenolytic proteases in root caries
Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2018 Objective: It is unknown whether bacteria play a role in the collagen matrix degradation that occurs during caries progression. Our aim was to characterize the expression level of genes involved in bacterial collagenolytic proteases in root biofilms with

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2019 Intestinal disease or surgical intervention results in local changes in tissue and host-derived factors triggering bacterial virulence. A key phenotype involved in impaired tissue healing is increased bacterial collagenase expression which degrades ...

Hydrolysis of the Leu-Gly bond of phenylazobenzyl-oxycarbonyl-l-Pro-l-Leu-Gly-l-Pro-D-Arg (a substrate of microbial collagenases) by treponemes isolated from the subgingival plaque of periodontitis patients [PDF]
Current Microbiology, 1990 Cell extracts prepared from several oral treponemes isolated from the subgingival plaque of periodontitis patients showed high enzyme activity toward phenylazobenzyl-oxycarbonyl-l-prolyl-l-leucylglycyl-l-prolyl-d-arginine (a compound used as a substrate for microbial collagenases).

An overview on therapeutic potential and various applications of microbial collagenases
Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology Research, 2017 Collagen is the most widely distributed class of proteins in the human body. Monomers of collagen are constantly being synthesized and degraded throughout the development of a healthy individual to adulthood. The collagenase subfamily found in human matrix (metalloproteinases), are capable of hydrolyzing native collagen under physiological conditions ...
