Collagen is the main structural protein found in the body's various connective tissues (skin, bones, tendons, etc.) where it contributes to much of their strength and elasticity. Collagen loss occurs naturally as a part of aging, but can also be influenced by environmental factors such as exposure to ultraviolet light, tobacco , and excessive ...
Collagens are complex molecules that provide structure, strength, and elasticity to connective tissue. Type II and type XI collagen disorders are grouped together because both types of collagen are components of the cartilage found in joints and the spinal column, the inner ear, and the jelly-like substance that fills the eyeball (the vitreous ...

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.
Fibrous proteins are structural or storage proteins that are typically inert and water-insoluble. A fibrous protein occurs as an aggregate due to hydrophobic side chains that protrude from the molecule. A fibrous protein's peptide sequence often has limited residues with repeats; these can form unusual secondary structures, such as a collagen ...
Acids like lactic acid and glycolic acid are AHAs, which means they are water soluble and work well on the skin's surface, while salicylic acid is a BHA and is oil soluble, meaning it works on the ...
