Therapeutic Activity of Collagen and Rosehip Extracts: A Review

Abstract

This article is an examination of the therapeutic activity of collagen and rosehip extracts. The scientific development and subsequent activity of collagen continues to influence the researchers all over the globe today. This article examines the research done and published by researchers and scientists. Consideration of current trends and data in scientific queries demonstrates further therapeutic aspects of collagen and rosehip extracts. Collagen hydrolysate is known to alleviate pain in knee joints and provide other protective effects in osteoarthritis, research papers and review articles from the past were considered as the basis of this work. Researchers have carried out experiments and statistically proven the role of collagen hydrolysate in joint disorders and different ortho related disorders. Collagen hydrolysate can provide symptomatic relief to the patients with osteoarthritis and according to the in vitro studies it can also be considered as a potential candidate for its therapeutic properties. Clinical studies have indicated that collagen hydrolysate significantly reduces pain and disability. It also has various regenerating effects that can help restore the damaged cartilage.  Component and chemo metric analysis of the rose hip was done and rosehip extracts were characterized to reveal their anti-oxidant and anti-inflammation properties using enhanced cross-linking mechanism and High-performance liquid chromatography. Collagen and rosehip extracts are clinically proven beneficial for osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, back pain, joint disorders, knee pain and post – ortho surgery conditions like pain and inflammation. A compilation of data is done in this article and explores options for therapeutic activity of hydrolysate for the treatment of osteoarthritis and other joint disorders and as a dietary supplement in athletes with activity-related joint pain. Anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties of rosehip powder, identification and characterization of the active component GOPO and the assessment of rosehips based on the content of their biologically active compounds and rosehip extracts in ortho and ortho post-surgery
