RESUMO
Acid-soluble, undenatured, typeâ I collagen (BSC) isolated, for the first time, from gilthead bream skin and the novel fabricated 3D porous wound dressing were analyzed for physicochemical and biological properties, in order to offer a safe alternative to commercial bovine collagen (BC) products. SDS-polyacrylamide analysis confirmed the purity of BSC preparation. The hydroxyproline content and temperature of denaturation of BSC were lower than those of BC, in accordance with the structural data recorded by FT-IR spectroscopy. However, certain concentrations of BSC stimulated the cell metabolism of L929 fibroblasts in a higher proportion than BC. The 3D wound dressing presented high porosity and low surface hydrophobicity that could help cell attachment and growth. The rapid biodegradation of BSC wound dressing could explain the improved inâ vitro cell migration and wound closure rate. In conclusion, the skin of gilthead bream from the Black Sea coast represented a valuable source for the biomedical industry, providing biocompatible, biodegradable collagen and 3D porous wound dressing, as novel material with enhanced wound healing activity.

Two collagens were made from giant salamander (Andrias davidianus) skin by using acid and pepsin extraction methods. The yields of acid-soluble and pepsin-soluble collagens were 26.9 and 58.7%, respectively. The results of spectrum, electrophoresis and amino acid analysis showed that they were type 1 collagen with two α and one ß peptides and high imino acid content. They had low solubility at a pH above 6 or salt concentration over 5%. The pepsin-soluble collagen had a better emulsion activity index. The odorants in raw skin and collagens were identified and evaluated using gas-chromatography mass-spectrometer and olfactometry methods and sensory analysis. The fishy and fatty off-odors in skin were not perceivable in the collagens. Sour, ammonia-like, and acrid off-odors were found in the collagens due to acid and enzymatic hydrolysis and protein degradation. The off-odor intensity of pepsin-soluble collagen was low. It could be considered a good and safe collagen material.

The utilization of bigeye tuna skin as a source of collagen has been increasing the value of these skins. In this study, the quality of the skin was studied first. The skin after 14 h freeze-drying showed a high protein level (65.42% ± 0.06%, db), no histamine and a lack of heavy metals. The collagens were extracted through acid and acid-enzymatic methods. The enzymes used were bromelain, papain, pepsin, and trypsin. The two highest-yield collagens were pepsin-soluble collagen (PSC) and bromelain-soluble collagen (BSC). Both were type I collagen, based on SDS-PAGE and FTIR analysis. They dissolved very well in dimethyl sulfoxide and distilled water. The pH ranges were 4.60-4.70 and 4.30-4.40 for PSC and BSC, respectively. PSC and BSC were free from As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, and Pb. They showed antioxidant activities, as determined by the DPPH method and the reducing power method. In conclusion, bigeye tuna skin shows good potential as an alternative source of mammalian collagen. Although further work is still required, PSC and BSC showed the potential to be further used as antioxidant compounds in food applications. Other biological tests of these collagens might also lead to other health applications.

Collagen is the major fibrillar protein in most living organisms. Among the different types of collagen, type I collagen is the most abundant one in tissues of marine invertebrates. Due to the health-related risk factors and religious constraints, use of mammalian derived collagen has been limited. This triggers the search for alternative sources of collagen for both food and non-food applications. In this regard, numerous studies have been conducted on maximizing the utilization of seafood processing by-products and address the need for collagen. However, less attention has been given to marine invertebrates and their by-products. The present review has focused on identifying sea cucumber as a potential source of collagen and discusses the general scope of collagen extraction, isolation, characterization, and physicochemical properties along with opportunities and challenges for utilizing marine-derived collagen.

Collagen plays an important role in the formation of extracellular matrix (ECM) and development/migration of cells and tissues. Here we report the preparation of collagen and collagen hydrogel from the skin of tilapia and an evaluation of their potential as a wound dressing for the treatment of refractory wounds. The acid-soluble collagen (ASC) and pepsin-soluble collagen (PSC) were extracted and characterized using sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), circular dichroism (CD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. Both ASC and PSC belong to type I collagen and have a complete triple helix structure, but PSC shows lower molecular weight and thermal stability, and has the inherent low antigenicity. Therefore, PSC was selected to prepare biomedical hydrogels using its self-aggregating properties. Rheological characterization showed that the mechanical strength of the hydrogels increased as the PSC content increased. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis indicated that hydrogels could form a regular network structure at a suitable PSC content. Cytotoxicity experiments confirmed that hydrogels with different PSC content showed no significant toxicity to fibroblasts. Skin repair experiments and pathological analysis showed that the collagen hydrogels wound dressing could significantly accelerate the healing of deep second-degree burn wounds and the generation of new skin appendages, which can be used for treatment of various refractory wounds.

Collagen is widely used in the pharmaceutical, tissue engineering, nutraceutical, and cosmetic industries. In this study, acid-soluble collagen (ASC) and pepsin-soluble collagen (PSC) were extracted from the skin of red stingray, and its physicochemical and functional properties were investigated. The yields of ASC and PSC were 33.95 ± 0.7% and 37.18 ± 0.71% (on a dry weight basis), respectively. ASC and PSC were identified as type I collagen by Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis, possessing a complete triple helix structure as determined by UV absorption, Fourier transform infrared, circular dichroism, and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy. Contact angle experiments indicated that PSC was more hydrophobic than ASC. Thermal stability tests revealed that the melting temperature of PSC from red stingray skin was higher than that of PSC from duck skin, and the difference in the melting temperature between these two PSCs was 9.24 °C. Additionally, both ASC and PSC were functionally superior to some other proteins from terrestrial sources, such as scallop gonad protein, whey protein, and goose liver protein. These results suggest that PSC from red stingray skin could be used instead of terrestrial animal collagen in drugs, foods, cosmetics, and biological functional materials, and as scaffolds for bone regeneration.

Acid- and pepsin-soluble collagen were purified from the skin of mahi mahi (mmASC and mmPSC). The Pro+Hyp content of the latter (185/1,000 residues) was highest among all marine teleost fishes. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Circular Dichroism (CD) analysis showed the typical structure of type I collagen. The ratio of positive over negative peak intensity calculated from the CD spectrum was approximately 1.19 in mmPSC, which is remarkably high, and indicates the stability of the triple helix. The denaturation temperatures (Td ) of mmASC and mmPSC were the highest (29.5 and 28.8°C, respectively) among the marine teleost fishes previously studied. atomic force microscope and scanning electron microscope images showed that even after pretreatment, the fibrils presented their structure and fiber orientation. These results indicate the robustness of both collagens, which can be attributed to the high value of Pro+Hyp stabilizing the helix structure of the collagen molecule. Practical applications While Mahi mahi is highly valuable for its meat, other parts such as skin is not fully utilized in seafood industry. On the contrary, it has been empirically shown that the skin of Mahi mahi has high thermal stability, thus, the skin has been used for leather products in some areas located in the tropical and subtropical zones. In this study, we focused on collagen a major component in skin and investigated the structure and the biochemical characteristics of it. Some results showed that collagen from skin has high physical stability. The collagen from skin of Mahi mahi will be a new fishery resource which could be used as a material for collagen products.

Non-mammalian collagens have attracted increasing attention for industrial and biomedical use. We have therefore evaluated extraction conditions and the biochemical properties of collagens from aquacultured sturgeon. Pepsin-soluble type I and type II collagen were respectively extracted from the skin and notochord of bester sturgeon by-products, with yields of 63.9⯱â¯0.19% and 35.5⯱â¯0.68%. Collagen extraction efficiency was improved by an alkaline pretreatment of the skin and notochord (fewer extraction cycles were required), but the final yields decreased to 56.2⯱â¯0.84% for type I and 31.8⯱â¯1.13% for type II. Alkaline pretreatment did not affect the thermal stability or triple-helical structure of both types of collagen. Types I and II collagen formed re-assembled fibril structures in vitro, under different conditions. Alkaline pretreatment slowed down the formation of type I collagen fibrils and specifically inhibited the formation of thick fibril-bundle structures. In contrast, alkaline pretreatment did not change type II collagen fibril formation. In conclusion, alkaline pretreatment of sturgeon skin and notochord is an effective method to accelerate collagen extraction process of types I and II collagen without changing their biochemical properties. However, it decreases the yield of both collagens and specifically changes the fibril-forming ability of type I collagen.

The aim of this study is to investigate the physicochemical properties, biosafety, and biocompatibility of the collagen extract from the skin of Nile tilapia, and evaluate its use as a potential material for biomedical applications. Two extraction methods were used to obtain acid-soluble collagen (ASC) and pepsin-soluble collagen (PSC) from tilapia skin. Amino acid composition, FTIR, and SDS-PAGE results showed that ASC and PSC were type I collagen. The molecular form of ASC and PSC is (α1)2α2. The FTIR spectra of ASC and PSC were similar, and the characteristic peaks corresponding to amide A, amide B, amide I, amide II, and amide III were 3323 cm-1, 2931 cm-1, 1677 cm-1, 1546 cm-1, and 1242 cm-1, respectively. Denaturation temperatures (Td) were 36.1 °C and 34.4 °C, respectively. SEM images showed the loose and porous structure of collagen, indicting its physical foundation for use in applications of biomedical materials. Negative results were obtained in an endotoxin test. Proliferation rates of osteoblastic (MC3T3E1) cells and fibroblast (L929) cells from mouse and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were increased in the collagen-treated group compared with the controls. Furthermore, the acute systemic toxicity test showed no acute systemic toxicity of the ASC and PSC collagen sponges. These findings indicated that the collagen from Nile tilapia skin is highly biocompatible in nature and could be used as a suitable biomedical material.

Type I collagen is a fibrous protein, which is highly biocompatible and biodegradable and exhibits low immunogenicity with its unique feature of undergoing a spontaneous self-assembly process. However, the excessive accumulation of collagen may lead to a condition known as fibrosis in vertebrates. Recently, saturated fatty acids have gained much attention as biomedical and therapeutic agents. Therefore, drawing inspiration from the biological and structural tunability of these fatty acids, this work aims to inhibit the self-assembly of type I collagen using (±)-α-lipoic acid (ALA). Reconstituted collagen and its blends with (±)-ALA under physiological conditions were subjected to fibril growth kinetics measurements, which exhibited the decrease in the rate of fibrillogenesis ( t1/2) with an increase in the concentration of ALA. Variations in the viscoelasticity of collagen and ALA blend with respect to rate and frequency showed significant changes. Further, the frequency shifts of different functional groups via FT-IR (ATR) and the morphological changes associated with fibril inhibition were visualized using a cryoscanning electron microscope. Molecular dynamics simulation of the collagen-like peptide with the (±)-ALA molecule at different molar ratios proved that (±)-ALA had a strong potential to bind at various sites of collagen mediated by conventional secondary or noncovalent forces. Thus, the protein-small molecule interaction dominates the forces prevailing between protein-protein binding, leading to the inhibition of the self-assembly process. Such inhibitory effects by a fatty acid may unfold newer avenues for development of targeted and sustainable drug delivery systems for fibrotic diseases.

Collagen is one of the most widely used biomaterials, not only due its biocompatibility, biodegradability and weak antigenic potential, but also due to its role in the structure and function of tissues. Searching for alternative collagen sources, the aim of this study was to extract collagen from the skin of codfish, previously obtained as a by-product of fish industrial plants, and characterize it regarding its use as a biomaterial for biomedical application, according to American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Guidelines. Collagen type I with a high degree of purity was obtained through acid-extraction, as confirmed by colorimetric assays, SDS-PAGE and amino acid composition. Thermal analysis revealed a denaturing temperature around 16 °C. Moreover, collagen showed a concentration-dependent effect in metabolism and on cell adhesion of lung fibroblast MRC-5 cells. In conclusion, this study shows that collagen can be obtained from marine-origin sources, while preserving its bioactivity, supporting its use in biomedical applications.

Sample preparation has become an important part of bone proteomics and paleoproteomics and remains one of the major challenges to maximizing the number of proteins characterized from bone extractions. Most paleoproteomic studies have relied on in-solution digestion with the inclusion of filter-aided sample preparation (FASP) as effective methods to detect the proteome. However, neither of these are optimal because few proteins have been detected utilizing only in-solution digestion and the molecular weight cutoff of FASP may miss remaining fragments of proteins in fossil bone. The recently developed single-pot, solid-phase-enhanced sample preparation (SP3) overcomes these issues by not relying on molecular weight while still controlling where the proteins are digested. Here, historical human bones were extracted with either 500 mM tetrasodium EDTA or 400 mM ammonium phosphate dibasic, 200 mM ammonium bicarbonate, 4 M guanidine HCl and digested with the SP3 method. Across all samples, 78 ± 7 (400-200-4) and 79 ± 17 (EDTA) protein accessions were identified, including previously difficult to detect proteins such as osteopontin. SP3 also effectively removed 90% or more of the coextracting humic substances (based on reduced absorbance) from extracted proteins. The utility of SP3 for maximizing the number of protein detections in historical bones is promising for future paleoproteomic studies.

Collagen has been widely documented as one of the most promising and competitive biomaterials for tissue engineering and medical applications. However, the properties of collagen differ from one source to another. In the present study, type I collagen (COL-I) was extracted and purified from the skins of Japanese sea bass (Lateolabrax japonicus) and Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and SDS-PAGE were performed to characterize both COL-Is. The denaturing temperature of bass collagen (BC) was observed to be 27.2 °C, and 35.3 °C for tilapia collagen (TC). The content of hydroxyproline was 13.4% in TC, which was similar to that in porcine collagen (PC, 13.6%) and higher than that in BC (10.3%), while the content of cysteine in TC (0.87%) was significantly higher than that in PC (0.04%) and BC (0.35%). After incubation at different temperatures for 9 h, more degraded collagen bands appeared in the BC hydrogel (BCH) group than in the TC hydrogel (TCH) group, indicating that TCH exhibited better thermal stability than BCH. The thermal stabilities of TCH and PC hydrogel (PCH) were similar. The compressive stress of TCH was up to 0.099 MPa, while it was 0.047 MPa for BCH and 0.003 MPa for PCH. These results demonstrated that the content of amino acids (especially hydroxyproline and cysteine) has a synergistic effect on the thermal and mechanical properties of BCH, TCH and PCH, which would be an indicator of the thermal and mechanical properties of collagen hydrogels in future studies.

Collagen from a marine resource is believed to have more potential activity in bone tissue engineering and their bioactivity depends on biochemical and structural properties. Considering the above concept, pepsin soluble collagen (PSC) and acid soluble collagen (ASC) from blue shark (Prionace glauca) skin were extracted and its biochemical and osteogenic properties were investigated. The hydroxyproline content was higher in PSC than ASC and the purified collagens contained three distinct bands α1, α2, and ß dimer. The purity of collagen was confirmed by the RP-HPLC profile and the thermogravimetric data showed a two-step thermal degradation pattern. ASC had a sharp decline in viscosity at 20â»30 °C. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images revealed the fibrillar network structure of collagens. Proliferation rates of the differentiated mouse bone marrow-mesenchymal stem (dMBMS) and differentiated osteoblastic (dMC3T3E1) cells were increased in collagen treated groups rather than the controls and the effect was dose-dependent, which was further supported by higher osteogenic protein and mRNA expression in collagen treated bone cells. Among two collagens, PSC had significantly increased dMBMS cell proliferation and this was materialized through increasing RUNX2 and collagen-I expression in bone cells. Accordingly, the collagens from blue shark skin with excellent biochemical and osteogenic properties could be a suitable biomaterial for therapeutic application.

The acid solubilised collagen (ASC) and pepsin solubilised collagen (PSC) were extracted from the by-products (skin) of a cartilaginous fish (Mustelus mustelus). The ASC and PSC yields were 23.07% and 35.27% dry weight, respectively and were identified as collagen Type I with the presence of α, β and γ chains. As revealed by the Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectra analysis, pepsin did not alter the PSC triple helix structure. Based on the various type of collagen yield, only PSC was used in combination with chitosan to produce a composite film. Such film had lower tensile strength but higher elongation at break when compared to chitosan film; and lower water solubility and lightness when compared to collagen film. Equally, FTIR spectra analysis of film composite showed the occurrence of collagen-chitosan interaction resulting in a modification of the secondary structure of collagen. Collagen-chitosan-based biofilm showed a potential UV barrier properties and antioxidant activity, which might be used as green bioactive films to preserve nutraceutical products.

Collagen is one of the most useful biomaterials and widely applied in functional food and cosmetics. However, some consumers have paid close attention to the safety of mammalian collagens because of the outbreaks of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), foot-and-mouth disease (FMD), and other prion diseases. Therefore, there is a strong demand for developing alternative sources of collagen, with one promising source being from the process by-products of commercial fisheries. In this report, acid-soluble collagen (ASC-SB) and pepsin-soluble collagen (PSC-SB) from swim bladders of miiuy croaker (Miichthys miiuy) were isolated with yields of 1.33 ± 0.11% and 8.37 ± 0.24% of dry swim bladder weight. Glycine was the major amino acid present, with a content of 320.5 (ASC-SB) and 333.6 residues/1000 residues (PSC-SB). ASC-SB and PSC-SB had much lower denaturation temperatures compared to mammalian collagen, a consequence of low imino acid contents (196.7 and 199.5 residues/1000 residues for ASC-SB and PSC-SB, respectively). The data of amino acid composition, SDS-PAGE pattern, UV and FTIR spectra confirmed that ASC-SB and PSC-SB were mainly composed of type I collagen. FTIR spectra data indicated there were more hydrogen bonding and intermolecular crosslinks in ASC-SB. These collagens showed high solubility in the acidic pH ranges and low NaCl concentrations (less than 2%). The Zeta potential values of ASC-SB and PSC-SB were 6.74 and 6.85, respectively. ASC-SB and PSC-SB presented irregular, dense, sheet-like films linked by random-coiled filaments under scanning electron microscopy. In addition, ASC-SB and PSC-SB could scavenge DPPH radical, hydroxyl radical, superoxide anion radical, and ABTS radical in a dose-dependent manner. Overall, the results indicate that collagens from the swim bladders of miiuy croaker are a viable substitute for mammalian collagen, with potential functional food and cosmeceutical applications.

The high pressure response of type-I collagen from bovine Achilles tendon is investigated with micro-Raman spectroscopy. Fluorinert™ and methanol-ethanol mixtures were used as pressure transmitting media (PTM) in a diamond anvil cell. The Raman spectrum of collagen is dominated by three bands centred at approximately 1450, 1660 and 2930 cm-1 , attributed to C-H deformation, C=O stretching of the peptide bond (amide-I band) and C-H stretching modes respectively. Upon pressure increase, using Fluorinert™ as PTM, a shift towards higher frequencies of the C-H stretching and deformation peaks is observed. Contrary, the amide-I band peaks are shifted to lower frequencies with moderate pressure slopes. On the other hand, when using the alcohol mixture as PTM, the amide-I band exhibits more pronounced C=O bond softening, deduced from the shift to lower frequencies, suggesting a strengthening of the hydrogen bonds between glycine and proline residues of different collagen chains due to the presence of the polar alcohol molecules. Furthermore, some of the peaks exhibit abrupt changes in their pressure slopes at approximately 2 GPa, implying a variation in the compressibility of the collagen fibres. This could be attributed to a pitch change from 10/3 to 7/2, sliding of the tropocollagen molecules, twisting variation at the molecular level and/or elimination of the D-gaps induced by kink compression. All spectral changes are reversible upon pressure release, which indicates that denaturation has not taken place. Finally, a minor lipid phase contamination was detected in some sample spots. Its pressure response is also monitored.

The present study isolated and characterized the barramundi (Lates calcarifer) skin collagen (BC) and tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) skin collagen (TC). The yields of BC and TC by enzymatic extraction were 47.3±3.7% and 52.6±6.1% respectively, dry weight. The SDS-PAGE profile indicated both collagens were mainly type I with two different α chains. FTIR spectra and X-ray diffraction confirmed that the triple helical structure of both collagens was not affected by pepsin digestion. The denaturation (Td) and melting temperature (Tm) were 36.8 and 109.6°C for BC, 37.6 and 113.7°C for TC, measured by rheometer and DSC. This high thermal stability could be attributed to the high imino acid content (205.9 and 210.9 residues/1000 residues) of BC and TC. Fibril-forming studies indicated BC exhibited higher ability than (p<0.05) that of TC, especially under the effect of NaCl. One major characteristic of this result showed that NaCl had the markedly effects of promoting collagen forming fibrils, and electron microscopic observation corroborated this phenomenon. In general, barramundi and tilapia skin collagen with high thermal stability and good fibril-forming ability may be suitable for use as an alternative to mammalian-derived collagen in biomaterials, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.

Collagens were extracted from the scales and skin of Ctenopharyngodon idella (C. idella) as raw materials using an acid-enzyme hybrid method. The structural properties of the extracted collagens were compared using ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and differential scanning calorimetry. Additionally, the in vitro self-aggregation behaviors of the two types of collagens (fish skin- and scale-derived collagens) were compared using turbidimetric assays, aggregation assays, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that both types of extracted collagen were typical type I collagen with two α chains and intact triple-helical structures. The denaturation temperatures of the collagens from fish scales and skin were 34.99°C and 39.75°C, respectively. Both types of collagens were capable of self-aggregation in neutral salt solution at 30°C, with aggregation degrees of 28% and 27.33% for the scale and skin collagens, respectively. SEM analysis revealed that both types of collagens could self-aggregate into interwoven fibers, and the fish scale-derived collagen had a more pronounced reticular fiber structure with a striped periodic D-band pattern of collagen fibrils, whereas the collagen fibers from the self-aggregation of fish skin-derived collagen had a certain degree of disruption without any D-band pattern.

Acid-soluble collagen (ASC) and pepsin-soluble collagen (PSC) were extracted from loach skin. The yields of ASC and PSC were 22.42% and 27.32%, respectively. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and peptide mass fingerprint analysis revealed that loach skin contained type I collagen. There were 212 imino acids/1000 residues in ASC and 193 imino acids/1000 residues in PSC. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry analysis, UV measurements and circular dichroism confirmed that loach skin collagen had a triple helical structure. The denaturation temperatures of ASC and PSC were 36.03°C and 33.61°C, respectively. Zeta potential analysis revealed that net zero charge values of ASC and PSC were 6.42 and 6.51, respectively. Therefore, loach skin collagen may be an alternative to terrestrial mammalian collagen and may enhance the added value of this fish species.
