Congenic mice confirm that collagen X is required for proper hematopoietic development. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
The link between endochondral skeletal development and hematopoiesis in the marrow was established in the collagen X transgenic (Tg) and null (KO) mice. Disrupted function of collagen X, a major hypertrophic cartilage matrix protein, resulted in skeletal

A role for collagen type IV in cardiovascular disease?

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology. Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 2018
Over the past decade, studies have repeatedly found single-nucleotide polymorphisms located in the collagen ( COL) 4A1 and COL4A2 genes to be associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD), and the 13q34 locus harboring these genes is one of ~160 genome ...

Collagenase Nanocapsules: An Approach to Fibrosis Treatment [PDF]

open access: yesActa Biomaterialia. 74, 430-438 (2018), 2021
Fibrosis is a common lesion in different pathologic diseases and is defined by the excessive accumulation of collagen. Different approaches have been used to treat different conditions characterized by fibrosis. FDA and EMA approved collagenase to treat palmar fibromatosis, Dupuyten disease. EMA approved additionally its use in severe Peyronie disease,
