Abstract
In vitro assay of collagen functional drink and its component on the phagocytosis index and capacity of peritoneal macrophages of BALB/c mice
Background: Collagen functional drinks have rapidly grown in both sales and consumption. This is due to the rise in healthy lifestyles and consumer awareness of a healthier, more beautiful skin. Collagen is a bioactive compound that supports the immune system and acts as a skin-firming agent.
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the effect of collagen drinks and their components: collagen, vitamin C, and inulin, on the phagocytosis index and capacity of peritoneal macrophages in vitro.
Methods: Macrophages were isolated from the peritoneal fluid of BALB/c mice (Mus musculus). The in vitro phagocytosis index and capacity were measured after macrophage cells were incubated with samples and latex particles. There were 5 treatments in this experiment: collagen, inulin, vitamin C, a collagen drink, and a control group.
Results: Administering functional collagen drinks and their components increased the phagocytosis index (p=0.033). The addition of vitamin C to macrophage cells showed the highest phagocytosis index, namely 1.94 ± 0.02, and a similar effect was found in the functional collagen drink (1.89 ± 0.26), followed by collagen (1.39 ± 0.75) and inulin (1.33 ± 0.60). Meanwhile, phagocytosis capacity did not differ significantly across all treatment groups (p=0.628), with values ranging from 41% to 73%.
Conclusion: Functional collagen beverages have potential as immunostimulatory food products, as indicated by a higher phagocytosis index than the control group. However, further in vivo research and clinical trials are needed to confirm their immunostimulatory effects.
