Abstract
Hair loss and thinning result from premature catagen and telogen development, and terminal to vellus conversion, the latter caused also by reduced bulge hair follicle stem cell (HFSC) number or ability to produce cell progeny. Although it is known that nutraceutical supplementation with collagen peptides can improve skin physiology, and that loss of type XVII collagen leads to the depletion of HFSCs in mice, the effect of collagen peptides on HF biology remains elusive. Thus, we investigated the effect of bovine (Peptan®B) and fish (Peptan®Marine)-derived collagen peptides on HF biology.
