collagens, plural;
  1. The main structural protein found in animal connective tissue, yielding gelatin when boiled


  1. (collagen) a fibrous scleroprotein in bone and cartilage and tendon and other connective tissue; yields gelatin on boiling
  2. (collagenous) relating to or consisting of collagen
  3. Collagen is a group of naturally occurring proteins. In nature, it is found exclusively in animals, especially in the flesh and connective tissues of mammals. ...
  4. (collagen) Any of more than 28 types of glycoprotein that forms elongated fibers, usually found in the extracellular matrix of connective tissue
  5. (Collagen) The protein in skin that gives it firmness, structure, keeps it taut and resilient.  With age, collagen is not only produced more slowly and degenerates more quickly, but also diminishes because of sun damage, pollution, free radical damage and genetics. ...
  6. (Collagen) An insoluble fibrous protein that is the chief constituent of the fibrils of connective tissue (as in skin and tendons) and of the organic substance of bones
  7. (Collagen) the major protein of connective tissue that makes up the foundation of skin and other tissues; used as an injectable filler to temporarily plump depressed areas or augment deficient areas of the skin
  8. (Collagen [KOL uh jen]) protein that is normally part of many tissues in the body (like skin, tendons, cartilage, bone, and connective tissue) and provides structural support.
  9. (Collagen) Protein fibrils within the corneal tissue that help sustain its shape.
  10. (Collagen) is a natural protein. As human skin ages, our own soluble collagen becomes less flexible and our skin's connective tissue loses its ability to retain moisture naturally. The main supporting fiber located within the dermis, gives strength and provides structure. ...
  11. (Collagen) a protein produced by skin cells that provide strength and resilience to the skin.
  12. (Collagen) The name given to a protein found within the connective tissue which is one of the building blocks of the skin. This protein is responsible for the strength and durability of the skin.
  13. (Collagen) The main protein in the connective tissues of the body. It is responsible for skin elasticity, and its degradation leads to wrinkles that accompany aging.
  14. (Collagen) The most abundant protein in skin; it is elastic fibers that give the skin support and structure.
  15. Collagen (from kolla, which means glue in Greek) is an important component in the structural tissues of the human body. Collagen, a protein that occurs naturally in the body, makes up the structure underneath the skin. ...
  16. (collagen) This family of fibrous proteins is the most abundant form of protein in the animal kingdom and the principal component of skin, nails, cartilage, tendons and ligaments. The slowing of collagen production as you age results in a loss of elasticity, causing wrinkles and sagging skin.
  17. (Collagen) A natural protein used as an injectable filler for soft tissue augmentation.
  18. (COLLAGEN) a fibrous protein that cannot be dissolved.
  19. (Collagen) A long fiber-like protein found in skin, bones, blood vessels, and connective tissue such as tendons and ligaments.
  20. (Collagen) Fibrous protein in bones and connective tissue, it is also present in the eye. One type of vision correction surgery heats collagen around the edges of the cornea (which lets light into the eye). ...
  21. (Collagen) The main protein of animal connective tissue that helps give the eye its structure. It is the main component in the cornea and sclera.
  22. (Collagen) A substance existing in the tissues of the body, including skin, cartilage, ligaments and bone.
  23. (Collagen (Hydrolyzed)) The protein that makes up the fibrous support system from which skin is mode. An excellent ingredient for its great hydration potential and its ability to bind and retain many times its weight in water. Aids in reducing natural moisture loss. Also considered an anti-irritant.
  24. (Collagen (Marine Collagen)) assists in keeping the skin soft, plump and supple and may reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Collagen helps hydrate, firm and tone the skin. ...
  25. (Collagen (Soluble)) A protein derived from the selected skins of young animals or from vegetable sources. The collagen molecule is too large to penetrate the unbroken skin. However, it forms a superior protective film to soothe and hydrate. ...
