Target Information
Type II collagen serves as the foundation for hyaline cartilage, such as the articular cartilage found at joint surfaces. It is composed of homotrimers of collagen, type II, alpha 1 chains. Studies indicate that chondrocytes have the highest potential for synthesizing type II collagen in areas of moderately degenerated osteoarthritic articular cartilage. Collagen Type II is mainly involved in the functional maintenance of articular cartilage and intervertebral disc in rabbits. In articular cartilage, its expression is inhibited by certain compounds, which may lead to changes in cell function and morphology; whereas in the intervertebral disc, increased expression helps to promote the synthesis of the ECM, thereby enhancing cell function.
