Breast milk contains many nutrients that formulas in store shelves do not have which makes breast feeding a healthier and ideal way to feed an infant. [3]

  3. Type IV collagen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_IV_collagen

    The most common collagen is type I collagen which makes up 90% of all collagen. It is found in all dermal layers at high proportions while type IV collagen is only found at the basement membrane of the epidermal junction. [6] Despite their differences in commonality, they are both strongly altered during aging or cancer progression. [citation ...

  4. Collagen hybridizing peptide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collagen_Hybridizing_Peptide

    Schematic of a CHP strand (labeled with an "X" tag) hybridizing to denatured collagen chains and forming a collagen triple helix. During disease progression, tissue development, or ageing, collagen can be extensively degraded by collagenolytic proteases, causing its triple helix to unfold at the physiological temperature due to reduced thermal stability.

  5. Breastfeeding and medications - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breastfeeding_and_medications

    Breastfeeding and medications is the description of the medications that can be used by a breastfeeding mother, and the balance between maternal health and the safety of the breastfeeding infant. [1] [2] Medications, when administered to breastfeeding mothers, almost always are transferred to breast milk, albeit usually in small quantities. [3]

  6. NeuVax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NeuVax

    NeuVax has been tested as adjuvant treatment in nearly 200 breast cancer patients over a total of 5 years, and has shown to be safe and effective in Phase 2 trials. [6] As a result, two additional NeuVax trials registered or underway are: (1) a 700 patient Phase 3 trial for FDA approval - not yet recruiting [2] [needs update] and (2) a 300 patient Phase 2 trial studying the combination of ...

  7. Collagen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collagen

    Collagen is also abundant in corneas, blood vessels, the gut, intervertebral discs, and the dentin in teeth. [3] In muscle tissue, it serves as a major component of the endomysium. Collagen constitutes 1% to 2% of muscle tissue and 6% by weight of skeletal muscle. [4] The fibroblast is the most common cell creating collagen in animals.

  8. Breastfeeding difficulties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breastfeeding_difficulties

    Breastfeeding difficulties refers to problems that arise from breastfeeding, the feeding of an infant or young child with milk from a woman's breasts.Although babies have a sucking reflex that enables them to suck and swallow milk, and human breast milk is usually the best source of nourishment for human infants, [1] there are circumstances under which breastfeeding can be problematic, or even ...

  9. Proteoglycan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proteoglycan

    Here they form large complexes, both to other proteoglycans, to hyaluronan, and to fibrous matrix proteins, such as collagen. The combination of proteoglycans and collagen form cartilage , a sturdy tissue that is usually heavily hydrated (mostly due to the negatively charged sulfates in the glycosaminoglycan chains of the proteoglycans).
