Chondrocyte Migration to Fibronectin, Type I Collagen, and Type II Collagen.

Cell Structure and Function, 1997
It is well known that cellular interactions, such as cell adhesion, migration, invasion, between cells and the extracellular matrix are mediated by the integrin family of cell surface receptors. Chondrocytes are surrounded by an abundant extracellular matrix, but there is less information on the cellular receptors which interact with this matrix.

Collagen type II modification by hypochlorite.

Acta Biochimica Polonica, 2003
Oxidation of proteins is a common phenomenon in the inflammatory process mediated by highly reactive agents such as hypochlorite (HOCl/OCl(-)) produced by activated neutrophils. For instance, in rheumatoid arthritis hypochlorite plays an important role in joint destruction.

Juvenile arthritis and autoimmunity to type II collagen [PDF]

Arthritis & Rheumatism, 2001
Joint inflammation in juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) is sometimes associated with an autoimmune response to type II collagen (CII), a cartilage-specific protein. To test the hypothesis that down-regulation of autoimmunity to CII can be accomplished in JRA by oral administration of CII, an open-label study of CII was performed in 9 patients with ...

Visfatin promotes intervertebral disc degeneration by inducing IL-6 expression through the ERK/JNK/p38 signalling pathways

Adipocyte, 2021
Visfatin reportedly induces the expression of proinflammatory cytokines. Severe grades of intervertebral disc disease (IVDD) exhibit higher expression of visfatin than mild ones.

The value of undenatured collagen for the normalization of the function of the cartilaginous tissue of the joints

Медицинский совет, 2022
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 ...

Increase in types IV and VI collagen in cherry haemangiomas

, 1992
The capillaries in cherry haemangiomas show perivascular hyalinized sheaths. In order to clarify the nature of this sheath material, the extracellular matrix of cherry haemangiomas from 20 normal volunteers (age range 30-64 years) was investigated using ...

Platelet autologous growth factors decrease the osteochondral regeneration capability of a collagen-hydroxyapatite scaffold in a sheep model [PDF]

, 2010
Current research aims to develop innovative approaches to improve chondral and osteochondral regeneration. The objective of this study was to investigate the regenerative potential of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to enhance the repair process of a collagen-
