Increased expression of collagens, transforming growth factor-β1, and -β3 in gluteal muscle contracture [PDF]

, 2010
Backgroud Gluteal muscle contracture (GMC) is a multi-factor human chronic fibrotic disease of the gluteal muscle. Fibrotic tissue is characterized by excessive accumulation of collagen in the muscle's extracellular matrix.

Toward the biochemical assessment of myocardial fibrosis in hypertensive patients [PDF]

, 1995
The serum concentrations of amino-terminal procollagen type III and carboxy-terminal procollagen type I-derived peptides, which have been proposed as useful markers of the tissue synthesis of collagen types III and type I, respectively, were abnormally ...

Folding Mechanism of the Triple Helix in Type‐III Collagen and Type‐III pN–Collagen [PDF]

European Journal of Biochemistry, 1980
The kinetics of triple‐helix formation in type III pN‐collagen, type III collagen and a quarter fragment of type III collagen was followed by optical rotation and circular dichroism. Kinetic intermediates were detected by trypsin digestion and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Endothelial Cells Expressing Endothelial and Mesenchymal Cell Gene Products in Lung Tissue From Patients With Systemic Sclerosis-Associated Interstitial Lung Disease. [PDF]

, 2016
OBJECTIVE: To examine whether lung endothelial cells (ECs) from patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc)-associated interstitial lung disease (ILD) express mesenchymal cell-specific proteins and gene transcripts, indicative of the occurrence of endothelial-

Antibodies aggravate the development of ischemic heart failure [PDF]

, 2018
Heart-specific antibodies have been widely associated with myocardial infarction (MI). However, it remains unclear whether autoantibodies mediate disease progression or are a byproduct of cardiac injury. To disambiguate the role of immunoglobulins in MI,

Increased autophagy-related 5 gene expression is associated with collagen expression in the airways of refractory asthmatics [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Fibrosis, particularly excessive collagen deposition, presents a challenge for treating asthmatic individuals. At present, no drugs can remove or reduce excessive collagen in asthmatic airways.

Speckle-tracking echocardiography combined with imaging mass spectrometry assesses region-dependent alterations [PDF]

, 2020
Left ventricular (LV) contraction is characterized by shortening and thickening of longitudinal and circumferential fibres. To date, it is poorly understood how LV deformation is altered in the pathogenesis of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced type 1 diabetes

An alternative transcript of the chick type III collagen gene that does not encode type III collagen.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1994
Type III collagen, a ubiquitous protein found in most connective tissues, is not present in hyaline cartilage. However, we have identified an alternative transcript of the type III collagen gene in cultured chondrocytes from several embryonic chick cartilages.

Glomerular Collagen V Codeposition and Hepatic Perisinusoidal Collagen III Accumulation in Canine Collagen Type III Glomerulopathy [PDF]

Veterinary Pathology, 2014
Collagen type III glomerulopathy, also known as collagenofibrotic glomerulopathy, is a rare renal disease of unknown pathogenesis. The disease occurs in humans and animals and is characterized by massive glomerular accumulations of collagen type III.
