Effect of Collagen Type I or Type II on Chondrogenesis by Cultured Human Articular Chondrocytes [PDF]
, 2013 Introduction: Current cartilage repair procedures using autologous chondrocytes rely on a variety of carriers for implantation. Collagen types I and II are frequently used and valuable properties of both were shown earlier in vitro, although a preference

Molecular Structure of Type II Collagen [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2010 The naturally crystalline arrangement of collagen molecules within the fibrils of some tissues, allows the use of fiber diffraction methods for structural characterization. This method has the potential to give structural information about collagen type II with minimum interference from sample preparation and may give the opportunity to produce ...

Identification of messenger RNA for human type II collagen
, 1984 Total RNA was purified from human fetal calvaria and articular cartilage. Messenger RNAs for type I and II collagens were identified by hybridization using cDNA clones for chicken proα1(I)-, proα2(I)- and proα1(II)collagen mRNAs and by analysis of cell ...
