April 2025 in “Food Bioscience” This study found that fish scale collagen peptide significantly promoted wound healing in mice, with the <1 kDa fractions enhancing collagen synthesis and reducing inflammation, suggesting potential clinical benefits.
August 2026 in “International Journal of Stem Cells” In this study, Korean adults with damaged hair who took 3g/day of low-molecular-weight collagen peptide GT for 24 weeks showed significant improvements in hair gloss, elasticity, and scalp elasticity compared to placebo, without any adverse events.
December 2025 in “PubMed” This study suggests that low molecular weight fish collagen peptide may promote hair follicle growth and regeneration, improving overall hair quality in mouse models.
September 2023 in “Journal of microbiology and biotechnology” This study found that low molecular weight collagen peptide from fish may promote hair growth in both human cells and mice by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
