Collagen Type One Upregulation

Meaning

The targeted increase in the gene expression and subsequent biosynthesis of Type I collagen, the most abundant structural protein in the dermis, bone, and connective tissues. This upregulation is a desirable physiological response in anti-aging and regenerative medicine protocols, signifying enhanced tissue repair and structural reinforcement. It is clinically associated with improved skin tensile strength and reduced wrinkle depth.
