Collagenolytic activity of bacteria.
Actively growing aerobic and anaerobic bacteria were screened by a plate assay, with reconstituted guinea pig collagen as a substrate, for their ability to produce a collagenolytic factor. Collagenolytic activity was not demonstrated among the aerobic organisms tested, with the exception of one strain of Staphylococcus aureus (only when grown under anaerobic conditions). Collagenolytic activity...
متن کاملCollagenolytic activity of Coccidioides immitis.
Coccidioides immitis appears to be unable to digest particulate collagen when cultured on collagen-containing semisolid culture media. However, all C. immitis strains solubilized collagen when the fungus was grown in liquid suspension cultures. Moreover, sterile culture filtrates were collagenolytic in collagen-buffer-agar plate assays.
متن کاملCollagenolytic Activity in Rat Bone Cells
An assay system for estimating quantitatively collagenase-like activity present in bone cells has been developed as part of a more general investigation of mechanisms of bone resorption. Methods are described for preparing from bone a C(14)-labeled collagen which is relatively pure and highly resistant to degradation by trypsin although readily broken down by bacterial collagenase. Collagenolyt...
متن کاملIn vivo and in vitro collagenolytic activity of Acanthamoeba castellanii.
Axenic cultures of Acanthamoeba castellanii contained a collagenolytic enzyme that digested collagen shields and purified collagen in vitro. Specificity of biologic activity was determined by the addition of selected enzyme inhibitors to the assays and revealed that the parasite-conditioned medium contained both collagenase and lower concentrations of other proteolytic enzymes. However, most of...
متن کاملMMP-10 Regulates Collagenolytic Activity of Alternatively Activated Resident Macrophages
Matrix metalloproteinase-10 (MMP-10) is expressed by macrophages and epithelium in response to injury, but its functions in wound repair are unknown. We observed increased collagen deposition and skin stiffness in Mmp10(-/-) wounds, with no difference in collagen expression or reepithelialization. Increased collagen deposition in Mmp10(-/-) wounds was accompanied by less collagenolytic activity...
