“…In addition, small amounts of other di-and tripeptides such as Ala-Hyp, Ala-Hyp-Gly, Leu-Hyp, Ile-Hyp, Phe-Hyp, Pro-Hyp-Gly, (Iwai et al, 2005) and Gly-Pro-Hyp can be detected (Ichikawa et al, 2010;Watanabe-Kamiyama et al, 2010). Another peptide, Hyp-Gly, was more recently discovered in human plasma upon collagen ingestion (Shigemura et al, 2011;Sugihara, Inoue, Kuwamori, & Taniguchi, 2012). It is noticeable that the average plasma concentration of those peptides is dose-dependent: Hyp-containing peptides reach maximum levels of 6.43, 20.17 and 32.84 nmol/mL following ingestion of 30.8, 153.8 and 384.6 mg doses of HC, respectively (Shigemura et al, 2011;Shigemura, Kubomura, Sato, & Sato, 2014).…”
