Effects of chondroitin sulfate B on the reconstitution of collagen fibrils
Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2017 Collagen fibrils were reconstituted in vitro from type I collagen solution. The reconstituted collagen fibrils and chondroitin sulfate B were deposited alternately.

An equilibrium double-twist model for the radial structure of collagen fibrils [PDF]
, 2014 Mammalian tissues contain networks and ordered arrays of collagen fibrils originating from the periodic self-assembly of helical 300 nm long tropocollagen complexes. The fibril radius is typically between 25 to 250 nm, and tropocollagen at the surface appears to exhibit a characteristic twist-angle with respect to the fibril axis.

Lipids as Trans-Acting Effectors for α-Synuclein in the Pathogenesis of Parkinson’s Disease
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019 Aggregation of α-synuclein (αSyn) plays a central role in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Lewy bodies (LBs) and Lewy neurites, which consist mainly of aggregated αSyn, are widely observed in the affected ...

Contribution of postnatal collagen reorientation to depth-dependent mechanical properties of articular cartilage [PDF]
The collagen fibril network is an important factor for the depth-dependent mechanical behaviour of adult articular cartilage (AC). Recent studies show that collagen orientation is parallel to the articular surface throughout the tissue depth in perinatal

The relationship between amyloid structure and cytotoxicity [PDF]
, 2014 Self-assembly of proteins and peptides into amyloid structures has been the subject of intense and focused research due to their association with neurodegenerative, age-related human diseases and transmissible prion diseases in humans and mammals. Of the

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Dynamic fibrils in H-alpha and C IV [PDF]
Astron.Astrophys.460:309-316,2006, 2007 Aim: To study the interaction of the solar chromosphere with the transition region, in particular active-region jets in the transition region and their relation to chromospheric fibrils. Methods: We carefully align image sequences taken simultaneously in C IV with the Transition Region and Coronal Explorer and in H-alpha with the Swedish 1-m Solar ...

Probing the Mechanisms of Fibril Formation Using Lattice Models
, 2008 Using exhaustive Monte Carlo simulations we study the kinetics and mechanism of fibril formation using lattice models as a function of temperature and the number of chains.

Polymorphic Aβ42 fibrils adopt similar secondary structure but differ in cross-strand side chain stacking interactions within the same β-sheet. [PDF]
, 2020 Formation of polymorphic amyloid fibrils is a common feature in neurodegenerative diseases involving protein aggregation. In Alzheimer's disease, different fibril structures may be associated with different clinical sub-types.
