| Research Abstract |
In our previous studies, administration of the chicken collagen hydrolysate (CCH) activates endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) which are collected from mildly hypertensive human subjects. The purpose of our current study was twofold: first, to clarify the mechanism of EPC proliferative activity of chicken collagen hydrolysate in vitro; and second, to observe whether we could obtain the same results as above using different pathological animal model.
Colony forming activity of angiotensin II treated EPCs were recovered to one third by addition of serum which was ingested CCH in growth medium compared with that of non-consumption. Furthermore, administration of CCH on stroke- or obese-model rats suppressed the precursor of vasoconstrictor hormone, and increased expression of the enzyme which contribute the compliance of blood vessels. It was therefore concluded that ingestion of CCH had contributed to constant maintenance of a blood vessel.
