Recent advances in corneal collagen cross-linking
Corneal collagen cross-linking has become the preferred modality of treatment for corneal ectasia since its inception in late 1990s. Numerous studies have demonstrated the safety and efficacy of the conventional protocol. Our understanding of the cross-linking process is ever evolving, with its wide implications in the form of accelerated and pulsed protocols. Newer advancements in technology i...
متن کاملAn enzyme-linked immunoassay for the collagen cross-link pyridinoline.
An inhibition immunoassay method for the determination of pyridinoline was developed with the use of microtitre plates coated with a pyridinoline--gelatin conjugate and rabbit antisera directed against pyridinoline linked to bovine serum albumin. The sensitivity of the assay is about 2pmol of pyridinoline, and the presence of related pyridinium and lysine-derived compounds does not significantl...
متن کاملAn investigation of pyridinoline, and putative collagen cross-link.
A component, termed pyridinoline, has been reported to be derived from 'lysine aldehyde' (2,6-diaminohexanaldehyde) and designated as the stable cross-link of mature collagen. Commerically prepared collagen and freshly obtained mature bovine tendon collagen were both investigated with regard to their pyridinoline content. Both sources of material could be depleted of this component by mild wash...
متن کاملCross-link analysis of the C-telopeptide domain from type III collagen.
Several peptides were isolated from tryptic digests of insoluble calf aorta matrix by chromatography. Reductive pyridylethylation of a tryptic 15 kDa pool released fragments deriving from the C-terminus of type III collagen. A 50-residue peptide Tc(III) was shown by sequence analysis to be the C-terminal peptide from the alpha 1(III)-chain, containing a helical and non-helical region of equal s...
متن کاملcollagen cross-linking
patients with keratoconus constitute a large proportion of patients suffering from anterior segment disorders. as of this time, however, its pathogenesis has not yet been elucidated. a reduction in cross-link between collagen molecules has been observed in keratoconic eyes as compared to normal ones. present approaches only address refractive errors resulting from the abnormal abnormal corneal ...
