골관절염에 대한 참당귀 추출분말 (AGE)의 치료효과를 검토하고자 토끼연골세포와 흰쥐의 monosodium iodoacetate (MIA)로 유발된 골관절염 부위에서 시료를 채취하여 MMPs의 발현에 대한 AGE의 억제 효능을 검토하였다. 고 농도의 AGE (50 μg/mL) 투여에서 세포독성은 관찰되지 않았으며 면역 및 염증반응과 관련된 여러 인자의 전사인자인 NF-κB 활성화를 효과적으로 억제시켰다. 토끼연골 세포에서 MMP-2와 MMP-9의 활성을 확인해본 결과 AGE는 MMP-9의 활성을 효과적으로 억제시키는 것을 확인하였다. AGE를 토끼연골세포에 처리하여 분석한 결과, 주요성분인 decursin과 decursinol angelate가 3.62±0.47 μg/mg protein와 2.14±0.36 μg/mg protein으로 검출되었다. 동물실험을 위하여, 골관절염은 MIA를 흰쥐 무릎관절에 처리하여 동물모델을 만들었으며, 매일 25, 50와 100 mg/kg의 AGE를 3주 동안 먹인 결과 흰쥐의 연골 조직에서 MMPs가 억제되는 것을 확인하였다. 연골조직으로부터 RT-PCR을 통해 collagen Type I, collagen Type II, aggrecan 및 MMPs (MMP-3, MMP-9, MMP-13)의 mRNA를 확인해본 결과 AGE는 collagen Type I, collagen Type II, aggrecan은 증가시키며 MMPs는 감소시키는 효과를 얻었다. 결론적으로 AGE는 MMPs 억제를 통하여 골관절염의 발생을 억제한다.

Retinoids have many beneficial effects on dermatological applications. But, retinoids cause skin irritation. In this study, the safety of retinoids was clarified via both primary skin irritation test in rabbits and sensitization study using an integrated model for the differentiation of chemical-induced allergic and irritant skin reaction (IMDS), an alternative method to sensitization test. The effects of retinoids on the change of ultraviolet A (UVA)-induced matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) in human skin fibroblasts and the modulation of type-1 pN collagen synthesis in hairless mice were examined to clarify the anti-wrinkle effects. Alltrans retinol (t-ROL) and its derivative, all-trans retinoic acid (t-RA), showed mild skin irritation but did not induce the sensitization. t-ROL and t-RA exerted anti-wrinkle effects by inhibiting the UVA-induced MMP-1 in human skin fibroblasts and increasing the type-1 pN collagen synthesis in hairless mice. These findings suggest that retinoids do not induce the allergy, and show anti-wrinkle effects by decreasing MMP-1 activation and increasing collagen synthesis.

성대결절, 폴립, 부종 등은 성대의 남용이나 과용등의 성대손상이 그 공통된 주된 원인으로 거론되고 있다. 하지만 음성치료를 비롯한 보존적 치료에 대한 반응이 서로 상이하며, H＆E 염색을 이용한 병리조직학적인 감별이 곤란하여 진단에 혼돈이 있으며, 치료의 방침을 결정하거나 예후를 예측함에 있어서도 어려움이 있다. 양성성대질환은 기저막부 위와 세포외 간질에 주된 변화가 발생함이 알려져 있고, collagen type IV의 발현양상이 성대결절과 폴립에서 서로 다름에 대하여는 보고된 바 있으나 기타 점막하층의 골격유지를 주기능으로 하는 대표적 세포외간질인 collagen subtype에 대하여는 아직 보고된 바가 없는 실정이다. Collagen 발현의 차이를 연구하는 것은 상기질환의 병인을 이해하고 질환분류의 guideline을 제시하며 나아가 적절한 치료방범을 제시하는 데에 큰 의미가 있을 것으로 기대된다. Paraffin에 고정되어 있는 5례 이상씩의 성대결절과 성대폴립, 육아 종 및 라인케씨 부종 조직을 collagen type I부터 VII에 대하여 peroxidase kit를 사용하여 염색한 후 각 군간에 collagen 분포양상과 발현정도에 차이가 있는가 비교하였다.

새로운 노화방지 물질로 개발한 3-APPA가 노화에 의해 야기되는 여러 변화들, 특히 세포 증식, 유전자 수준 및 단백질 수준에서의 collagen의 생합성 변화, 면역조직화학염색을 이용한 collagen 생합성의 변화등을 세포배양 및 동물실험을 통하여 측정하였다. MTT assay를 이용한 인체 피부 섬유아세포의 증식 실험에서 3-APPA는 무처치군에 비교해서 최고 2배의 섬유아세포 증식 효능을 나타내었으며, $^3$[H]-proline incorporation 방법을 이용한 단층세포 배양 및 3차원 dermal equivalent 섬유아세포 배양에서 무처치군 및 vitamin C 처리군에 비해 최고 1.5배의 collagen 생합성 증가를 나타내었다. 그러나 type I alpha-procollagen mRNA expression에는 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. H&E 염색을 이용한 hairless mice의 피부에 대한 형태학적 변화 및 type I pM procollagen antibody를 이용한 면역조직화학염색에서, 3-APPA는 collagen 생합성을 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과에서 3-APPA는 섬유아세포 배양 및 hairless mouse를 이용한 실험에서 피부 섬유아세포 증식을 촉진시키며 collagen 생합성을 증가시켜 피부노화를 억제 할 수 있는 물질임을 밝혔다.

Chemotactic migration of bone forming cell, osteoblast, is an important event during bone formation, bone remodeling, and fracture healing. Migration of cells is mediated by adhesion receptors, such as integrins, that link the cell to extracellular matrix ligands, type I collagen, fibronectin, laminin and depend on interaction between integrin and extracellular ligand. Our study was designed to investigate the effect of extracellular matrix like fibronectin, laminin, type I collagen on migration of osteoblast. Migration distance and speed of MC3T3-E1 cell on extracellular matrix-coated glass were measured for 24 hours using 0.01% type I collagen, 0.01% fibronectin, 100 microliter/ml laminin. The migration distance and speed of MC3T3-E1 cell was compared using a video-microscopy system. To determine migration speed, cells were viewed with a 4 phase- contrast lens and video recorded. Images were captured using a color CCD camera and saved in 8-bit full-color mode. The migration distance on 0.01% type I collagen or 0.01% fibronectin was longer than that on $100{\mu}l/ml$ laminin-coated glass. The migration speed on fibronectin-coated glass was 68 micrometer/hour which was fastest. The migration speed on type I collagen-coated glass was similar with that on fibronectin-coated glass. The latter two migration speeds were faster than that on no-coated glass. On the other hand, the average migration speed on laminin-coated glass was 37micrometer/hour and not different from that of control group. In conclusion, the extracelluar matrix ligands such as type I collagen and fibronectin seem to play an important role in cell migration. The type I collagen or fibronectin coated scaffold is more effective for migration of osteoblast in tissue engineering process.

Purpose: When deciding a treatment plan in diabetic foot ulcer patients, predicting a possibility of healing wounds is important since not a few patients have poor general condition to get successful wound healing. This study was planned to find out if a serum collagen level can be used as a predictor for healing wounds in diabetic foot patients. Methods: Fifty-seven patients, who visited our clinic from January to June, 2007 for treatment of diabetic foot ulcers, were included in this study. Serum levels of type I collagen were checked using carboxy terminal type I propeptide kits. Simultaneously serum levels of vitamin C and iron, cofactors of collagen synthesis, were checked. The patients were divided into two groups; a group of successfully healed wounds and the other of unhealed wounds. Serum levels of the parameters were compared between the 2 groups. Results: The serum level of collagen was $197.65{\pm}86.26ng/ml$ in a healed group and $87.91{\pm}28.76ng/ml$ in the unhealed group(p<0.05). The serum iron and vitamin C levels were did not show significant differences. Conclusion: The serum collagen level may predict healing or nonhealing wounds in diabetic foot ulcers.

Fibrin is a natural provisional matrix found in wound healing, while type I collagen is a major organic component of bone matrix. Despite the frequent use of fibrin and type I collagen in bone regenerative approaches, their comparative efficacies have not yet been evaluated. In the present study, we compared the effects of fibrin and collagen on the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts and protein adsorption. Compared to collagen, fibrin adsorbed approximately 6.7 times more serum fibronectin. Moreover, fibrin allowed the proliferation of larger MC3T3-E1 pre-osteoblasts, especially at a low cell density. Fibrin promoted osteoblast differentiation at higher levels than collagen, as confirmed by Runx2 expression and transcriptional activity, alkaline phosphatase activity, and calcium deposition. The results of the present study suggest that fibrin is superior to collagen in the support of bone regeneration.

Various commercial collagen mixtures aimed at improving the quality of meat products are available, but the optimal composition is unclear. This study aimed to compare the functional properties, including physicochemical characteristics and lipid oxidative stability, of loin ham marinated with three commercial collagen mixtures sold as food additives. The addition of collagen mixtures led to significant increases in the moisture content, water holding capacity (WHC), cooking yield, and instrumental tenderness, regardless of the type of collagen mixture. In particular, meat samples containing collagen mixture C showed the highest (p<0.05) WHC and tenderness among all groups. Furthermore, collagen mixture B induced increases (p<0.05) in pH values in both raw and cooked samples. The $a^*$ values of samples with collagen mixtures were lower (p<0.05) than those of samples without collagen mixtures. All collagen mixtures effectively improved oxidative stability during 7 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C$. The samples containing collagen mixture B had the lowest lipid oxidation (p<0.05) among groups. These results indicated that collagen mixture C could be used in injection brine to enhance the quality characteristics of meat products, particularly the WHC and tenderness. Collagen mixture A could be used for meat products with high fat contents based on its ability to improve lipid oxidative stability during long-term storage.

To utilize collagen as an implantable biomateriall the mcct widely used bovine skin origin Type I collagen was investigated Pepsin treated, Type I atelocollagen was extracted and crosslinked by the ultraviolet(W) ray with wavelength of 254nm or by various concentrations of glutaraldehyde to produce collagen membranes. The crosslink rates of the specimens were observed by a polarized light microscope, a scanning electron microscope, and a Fourier transform infrared (FT-lR) spectrometer. The followings are concluded 1. The collagen membranes produced by both 2.5% glutaraldehyde solution and 254nm UV ray irra- diation demonstrated similar morphologies on polarized light microscopic and scanning electron microscopic views. 2. The chemical structures of the crosslinked membranes by glutaraldehyde over 2.5% in concentrations revealed similar intensities to that of the UV ray irradiated one in FT-lR investigation. 3. To obtain optimal croulink in bovine stalin origin Type I atelocollagen, 2.5% glutaraldehyde solution or UV ray irradiation with 254nm wavelength is acceptable.

This study was performed to examine if the effects of collagen supplementation from pork skin could improve the sex steroid hormone, serum lipid and skin crack in Korean middle-aged women. Middle-aged women (40-55 years) who were not diagnosed with any type of disease were included in this study and thirty subjects were randomly assigned to a control group (n = 15) or a collagen supplemented group (n = 15). The collagen supplemented group ingested collagen flour 2 g, 3 times a day for 12 weeks. We measured serum collagen, estrogen, estradiol, estriol, progesterone, total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL-cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol concentration. The collagen supplementation group had significantly increased serum collagen (p < 0.05) compared with the control group. In addition, skin crack was improved. But, there were no differences for sex steroid hormone and lipid profile in control and collagen supplemented groups. The result of the present study demonstrated that supplementation of 6 g collagen per day for 12 weeks can give beneficial effects on skin crack reduction and serum collagen concentration.
