COLLAGEN PRODUCTION PROMOTER, CULTURE MEDIUM FOR PROMOTING COLLAGEN PRODUCTION, ANTI-AGING AGENT, GEL FOR PROMOTING COLLAGEN PRODUCTION, AND METHOD OF PRODUCING GEL FOR PROMOTING COLLAGEN PRODUCTION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a collagen production promoter which increases the amount of collagen production by cells.;SOLUTION: A collagen production promoter comprises an artificial protein (A) which promotes collagen production of cells (C), in which the artificial protein (A) comprises polypeptide chain (Y) and/or the following polypeptide chain (Y'). The polypeptide chain (Y) comprises 2-100 repeats of amino acid sequence (X) which is one of VPGVG sequence(1), GVGVP sequence(2), GPP sequence, GAP sequence and GAHGPAGPK sequence(3), the total number of the polypeptide chain (Y) and the polypeptide chain (Y') in the artificial protein (A) is 1-100, and hydrophobicity of the artificial protein (A) is 0.2-1.2. In the polypeptide chain (Y'), 0.1-5% of the total amino acids in the polypeptide chain (Y) are replaced by lysine and/or arginine, and the total number of the lysine and arginine replaced is 1-100.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2014,JPO&INPIT
