The Structures of Collagen [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 1954
Collagen is the name given to a very important group of similar, but not identical, components of human and other animal bodies. It is the principal component of our skin and of the connective tissue holding different parts of our bodies together. There has been a large amount of research, by many good scientists, on the structures of collagen, but I ...

The Versatility of Collagen in Pharmacology: Targeting Collagen, Targeting with Collagen

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences
Collagen, a versatile family of proteins with 28 members and 44 genes, is pivotal in maintaining tissue integrity and function. It plays a crucial role in physiological processes like wound healing, hemostasis, and pathological conditions such as fibrosis and cancer. Collagen is a target in these processes.

Collagen propeptides as indicators of collagen assembly [PDF]

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1995
It is old knowledge that bones are for about 70% made up of calcium salts and for about 30% of collagen. More specifically, almost all of the collagen in the collagen fibres of mineralized tissues is type I collagen, while most of the other almost 20 genetically distinct collagen types are essentially proteins of soft tissues.

Elevated expression of type VII collagen in the skin of patients with systemic sclerosis. Regulation by transforming growth factor-beta. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
A hallmark of systemic sclerosis (SSc) is the development of tissue fibrosis. Excessive production of several connective tissue components normally present in the dermis, including type I, III, V, and VI collagens as well as fibronectin and proteoglycans,

B cell mechanobiology in health and disease: emerging techniques and insights into therapeutic responses

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...
