Cyclic Mechanical Stretch Induced Smooth Muscle Cell Changes in Cerebral Aneurysm Progress by Reducing Collagen Type IV and Collagen Type VI Levels
Abstract
Background/Aims: Cerebral aneurysm growth is characterized by continuous structural weakness of local smooth muscle cells, though the mechanism is unclear. In this study, we examine protein changes in cerebral aneurysm and human brain vascular smooth muscle
cells after cyclic mechanical stretch. We further explore the relationship ...

Collagen-derived peptides modulate CD4þ T-cell differentiation and suppress allergic responses in mice
Abstract
Introduction: Collagen peptides have been widely used as a food supplement. After ingestion of collagen peptides, oligopeptides containing hydroxyproline (Hyp), which are known to have some physiological activities, are detected in peripheral
blood. However, the effects of collagen-peptide administration on immune response are unclear. In the present study, we tested the effects ...

Collagen peptides improve knee osteoarthritis in elderly women A 6-month randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study
ABSTRACT: As the global population gets older, joint-related health concerns are increasingly common, such as osteoarthritis causing pain and reducing mobility. Collagen peptides have been proposed as nutraceuticals to improve joint health in patients with osteoarthritis. We performed a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebocontrolled study in elderly women with ...

Change in Serum Biomarkers in Patients with Osteoarthritis treated with Collagen Hydrolysate: Results of a Prospective Randomized Study
Collagen hydrolysate is a nutritional supplement that is used for the treatment of patients with osteoarthritis. Collagen hydrolysate –
chemically speaking – is a mixture of proteins, namely collagen peptides, that are manufactured on the basis of skin and bones from
cattle, pigs or fish on an industrial scale. Prospective, randomized, placebo-contro...

Amelioration of estrogen deficiency-induced obesity by collagen hydrolysate
Abstract
Objectives: Menopausal transition with declining estrogen levels significantly affects the physiological properties of women and consequently contributes to a series of medical conditions, including obesity. Obesity is a crucial risk factor associated with cardiovascular diseases, diabetes mellitus, and breast cancer. Increasing dietary protein content improves satiety and energy expenditure. Thus, we ...

Vegan diets: practical advice for athletes and exercisers
Abstract: With the growth of social media as a platform to share information, veganism is becoming more visible, and could be becoming more accepted in sports and in the health and fitness industry. However, to date, there appears to be a lack of literature that discusses how to manage vegan diets for athletic purposes. This article attempted to review literature in order to provide recommendations for how to construct a vegan diet for ...
