Zinc can prevent collagen hydrolysis by MMPs.
It is suggested that zinc has a direct and selective preventive effect on rat lung collagen accumulation by inhibiting procollagen proline hydroxylation.
The present data suggest that peroral zinc treatment has a direct and selective inhibitory effect on carbon tetrachloride-induced collagen accumulation in rat liver.
Neither inhibition of polysomal protein synthesis nor increased degradation of mature collagen fibers was found to play any major role in the effect of zinc.
The results of this study suggest that most of the zinc atoms detected were attached to hydroxyapatite and not to collagen.
The results show that zinc does not have a direct acceleratory effect on either cellular proliferation or collagen biosynthesis in human skin fibroblasts in vitro.

What is the crystal structure of cadmium oxide doped with manganese and zinc?
4 answers
The crystal structure of cadmium oxide (CdO) doped with manganese (Mn) and zinc (Zn) varies based on the dopant concentration. Mn-doped CdO films exhibit a polycrystalline cubic structure, with a decrease in crystallite size as Mn doping increases, leading to increased transparency and energy gap of the films. On the other hand, Zn-doped CdO films show a cubic structure with an additional hexagonal phase at higher Zn ratios, indicating an increase in crystallinity and crystal size with higher Zn content. The CdO nanocrystals doped with Zn and Cd exhibit an alloyed structure, with varying crystallite sizes and band gaps depending on the Cd to Zn molar ratio, showing a red shift followed by a blue shift and then another red shift in band gaps.
