ABSTRACT:
A collagen mimetic peptide having the nine amino acid sequence glycine-proline-hydroxyproline-glycine -proline-glutamine-glycine-methionine-glycine, and analogs thereof is described. The collagen mimetic peptide may be included within a pharmaceutical composition also containing a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and/or animal tissue. The collagen mimetic peptide is used in a treatment of rheumatoid arthritis by orally administering the collagen mimetic in an amount effective to reduce or alleviate one or more symptoms associated with rheumatoid arthritis.
