Antibodies to citrulline-modified proteins have a high diagnostic value in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, their biological role in disease development is still unclear. To obtain insight into this question, a panel of mouse monoclonal antibodies was

The biocompatibility of titanium in a buffer solution: compared effects of a thin film of TiO2 deposited by MOCVD and of collagen deposited from a gel [PDF]
This study aims at evaluating the biocompatibility of titanium surfaces modified according two different ways: (i) deposition of a bio-inert, thin film of rutile TiO2 by chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD), and (ii) biochemical treatment with collagen gel,

Among the proteins of the human body, collagen accounts for at least 25–45% collagen; it is an essential structural component of skeletal tissues, connective tissue of internal organs (heart, intestines, lungs, liver, kidneys), as well as blood vessels ...

Autoantibody recognition of collagen type II in arthritis [PDF]
Autoantibodies against collagen type II (CII), a protein localized in the joint cartilage, play a major role in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), one of the most commonly used animal models for rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

AUTOIMMUNE ASPECTS OF COLLAGEN HOMEOSTASIS DISORDER IN UNDIFFERENTIATED CONNECTIVE TISSUE DYSPLASIA
. The levels of autoantibodies to collagen type I, II, III, IV and V were studied in blood plasma of 130 patients (18-32 years old) with undifferentiated connective tissue dysplasia, using immunoenzyme analysis.

Correlation between compositional and mechanical properties of human mesenchymal stem cell-collagen microspheres during chondrogenic differentiation [PDF]
Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based engineering is promising for cartilage repair. However, the compositional mechanical relationship of the engineered structures has not been extensively studied, given the importance of such relationship in native ...

Suppression of type II collagen-induced arthritis by intragastric administration of soluble type II collagen. [PDF]
Although oral administration of protein antigens may lead to specific immunologic unresponsiveness, this method of immunoregulation has not been applied to models of autoimmune disease. Type II collagen-induced arthritis is an animal model of polyarthritis induced in susceptible mice and rats by immunization with type II collagen, a major component of ...
