Status and developmental trends in recombinant collagen preparation technology.

ABSTRACT

Recombinant collagen is a pivotal topic in foundational biological research and epitomizes the application of critical bioengineering technologies. These technological advancements have profound implications across diverse areas such as regenerative medicine, organ replacement, tissue engineering, cosmetics and more. Thus, recombinant collagen and its preparation methodologies rooted in genetically engineered cells mark pivotal milestones in medical product research. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the current genetic engineering technologies and methods used in the production of recombinant collagen, as well as the conventional production process and quality control detection methods for this material. Furthermore, the discussion extends to foresee the strides in physical transfection and magnetic control sorting studies, envisioning an enhanced preparation of recombinant collagen-seeded cells to further fuel recombinant collagen production.
