Collagen is a vital protein in skin, hair, nails, and other tissues. Its production decreases with age and factors like sun damage and smoking. Collagen supplements, derived from sources like fish and cattle, are marketed to improve skin, hair, and nails. Studies show some skin benefits, but these supplements often contain other beneficial ...

Type I collagen is the most abundant collagen of the human body, consisting of around 90% of the body's total collagen in vertebrates. Due to this, it is also the most abundant protein type found in all vertebrates. Type I forms large, eosinophilic fibers known as collagen fibers, which make up most of the rope-like dense connective tissue in ...

Collagen alpha-2(XI) chain is a protein that in humans is encoded by the COL11A2 gene. [5] [6] [7] The COL11A2 gene produces one component of this type of collagen, called the pro-alpha2(XI) chain. Type XI collagen adds structure and strength to the tissues that support the body's muscles, joints, organs and skin (the connective tissue).
