Investigation of collagen architecture in diseases of temporomandibular joint
Background: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) is a stress bearing structure. Its resilience and functions are supported by collagen architecture. Visualization of this collagen networking can be done under polarizing microscope. This network gets modified in a variety of conditions affecting the TMJ likeankylosis, degenerative joint disorder, neoplastic conditions, trauma and ageing. The objective ...
متن کاملMyocardial collagen turnover in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND Myocardial interstitial fibrosis is a characteristic of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). This study evaluates the collagen turnover in HCM and its impact on left ventricular (LV) diastolic function. METHODS AND RESULTS Thirty-six HCM patients and 14 sex- and age-matched controls were studied. Collagen turnover was assessed as follows. By radioimmunoassay, a byproduct of collagen ...
متن کاملThe turnover of collagen in fibroblast cultures.
Collagen turnover was studied in mouse fibroblast cultures (3T6) by radioactive labelling and compartmental analyses. The incorporation of [C]proline into protein during continuous labelling rapidly reached a maximum value which was directly proportional to the medium specific activity. Radioactivity appeared more slowly in hydroxyproline, and gradually accumulated as cultures became enriched i...
متن کاملInterstitial lung diseases in collagen vascular diseases.
In this review, a clinical update is presented of the most important collagen vascular diseases (CVDs) and the different types of interstitial lung disease (ILD) encountered in these CVDs. These CVDs represent a heterogenous group of immunologically mediated inflammatory disorders with a large variety of affected organs besides the lungs. The frequency, clinical presentation, prognosis and resp...
متن کاملJoint capsule collagen in osteoarthrosis.
It has long been recognized that although osteoarthrosis is characterized by degenerative changes in the articular cartilage and bones, changes in the capsule play an important part in the symptoms. The capsule becomes thickened and lacks its normal pliability, thus restricting normal movement (Gade, 1947; Apley, 1969) and resulting in pain in the joint. Similarly, Jayson (1969) described a ser...
