Novel Approaches for the 3D Printing of Collagen-Sourced Biomaterials Against Infectious and Cardiovascular Diseases

Gels
Collagen is a versatile material, and collagen in the human body strengthens the muscles and related organs, allowing good substances to be absorbed into the bloodstream while preventing the absorption of toxic substances. Thus, collagen has been broadly

Postnatal development of depth-dependent collagen density in ovine articular cartilage [PDF]

, 2010
Articular cartilage (AC) is the layer of tissue that covers the articulating ends of the bones in diarthrodial joints. Adult AC is characterised by a depth-dependent composition and structure of the extracellular matrix that results in depth-dependent ...

Epicutaneous immunization with type II collagen inhibits both onset and progression of chronic collagen-induced arthritis. [PDF]

, 2007
Epicutaneous immunization is a potential non-invasive technique for antigen-specific immune-modulation. Topical application of protein antigens to barrier-disrupted skin induces potent antigen-specific immunity with a strong Th2-bias.

Visualization and phenotyping of proinflammatory antigen-specific T cells during collagen-induced arthritis in a mouse with a fixed collagen type II-specific transgenic T-cell receptor beta-chain [PDF]

, 2010
Introduction: The Vbeta12-transgenic mouse was previously generated to investigate the role of antigen-specific T cells in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), an animal model for rheumatoid arthritis. This mouse expresses a transgenic collagen type II (CII)

The time-dependent rearrangement of the epithelial basement membrane in human skin wounds [PDF]

, 1992
In 62 human skin wounds (surgical wounds, stab wounds and lacerations after surgical treatment) we analyzed the immunohistochemical localization of collagen IV in the epithelial basement membrane.
