A novel collagen glycopeptide, Pro-Hyp-CONH-GlcN, stimulates cell proliferation and hyaluronan production in cultured human dermal fibroblasts

Pro-Hyp-CONH-GlcN (POGlcN) is a glycopeptide synthesized from a typical bioavailable collagen peptide Pro-Hyp by conjugation with glucosamine. This study investigated the effects of POGlcN on dermal fibroblast growth, hyaluronan production, and the underlying mechanism. The results suggest that the...
