Collagen Cross-linking for Microbial Keratitis

open access: yesMiddle East African Journal of Ophthalmology, 2017
Collagen cross-linking is gaining popularity not only for arresting the progression of keratoconus but also other indications including management of corneal infections. In this review article, we analyzed the published literature to understand the level

Corneal Collagen Cross-Linking Complications

Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2018
Corneal cross-linking was approved by United States Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of progressive keratoconus in April 2016. As this approach becomes more widely used for the treatment of keratoconus and post-laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) ectasia, the medical community is becoming more familiar with potential complications ...

Corneal Collagen Cross-linking

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2012
Corneal collagen cross-linking has recently emerged as a novel approach for management of ectasia. This article reviews the literature published in the past 3 years about the expanding spectrum of cross-linking as a therapeutic modality and its complications.Recent studies have confirmed the beneficial effects of cross-linking in stabilization and to a

Collagen Cross-linking

Collagen and Related Research, 1982
The structural macromolecules of the extracellular matrix have been investigated with rapidly increasing activity and depth in the past decade. Collagen, and to a lesser extent, elastin, were among the earliest of this group to be studied in more detail than the proteoglycans and adhesive glycoproteins.

Aberrant Collagen Cross-linking in Human Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Journal of dentistry research, 2019
Tumor progression is a complex process involving extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling and stiffening. However, the mechanisms that govern these processes and their roles in tumor progression are still poorly understood.

Multiscale mechanical effects of native collagen cross-linking in tendon

Connective Tissue Research, 2018
The hierarchical structure of tendon allows for attenuation of mechanical strain down decreasing length scales. While reorganization of collagen fibers accounts for microscale strain attenuation, cross-linking between collagen molecules contributes to ...

Cross-Linking of Collagen

Science, 1973
The formation of collagen cross-links is attributable to the presence of two aldehyde-containing amino acids which react with other amino acids in collagen to generate difunctional, trifunctional, and tetrafunctional cross-links. A necessary prerequisite for the development of these cross-links is that the collagen molecules be assembled in the ...
