Collagen, type VI, alpha 3 patient fibroblast cells using siRNA has successfully improved cellular deposition of type VI collagen in autosomal dominant UCMD, and may become a promising treatment for it. Though high expression levels of COL6A3 have been correlated with obesity and diabetes in mice, this relationship was not observed in humans. Other disorders involving muscle and connective tissue include weakness, joint laxity and contractures, and abnormal skin. Collagen, type VI, alpha 3 Collagen alpha-3(VI) chain is a protein that in humans is encoded by the "COL6A3" gene. This protein is an alpha chain of type VI collagen that aids in microfibril formation. As
