What is Collagen Breakdown?

Collagen is the most abundant protein in our body that accounts for majority of the dry weight of skin. It forms connective tissues and provides mechanical stability, strength and toughness throughout the body from bone to skin. The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are essential to the remodelling of the extracellular matrix. The degradation of collagen is catalysed by MMP1. The alteration of collagen in extracellular matrix is responsible for the clinical manifestations of skin ageing such as wrinkles and sagging.
