Macromolecular organization of chicken type X collagen in vitro
The macromolecular structure of type X collagen in the matrices of primary cultures of chick hypertrophic chondrocytes was initially investigated using immunoelectron microscopy. Type X collagen was observed to assemble into a matlike structure with-in the matrix elaborated by hypertrophic chondrocytes. The process of self assembly was investigated at the molecular level using purified chick ty...
متن کاملComparative studies of type X collagen expression in normal and rachitic chicken epiphyseal cartilage
The levels of type X collagen in mineralizing normal chicken epiphyses and nonmineralizing rachitic chicken tibial epiphyses were measured and compared. Qualitative immunoperoxidase studies with anti-chick type X collagen monoclonal antibodies on sections from normal and rachitic cartilage demonstrated that the type X collagen levels in rachitic growth plates are reduced. Northern hybridization...
متن کاملType V collagen synthesis and deposition by chicken embryo corneal fibroblasts in vitro.
Chick embryo corneal fibroblasts were grown in culture to study the processes whereby fibroblasts regulate the deposition and organization of the collagenous, secondary stroma. The effects of an existing type I collagen substratum, cell density, and serum concentration on type V collagen synthesis were investigated. Type V collagen represented approximately 20% of the total fibrillar collagen s...
متن کاملSupraorganized collagen enhances Schwann cell reactivity and organization in vitro.
We investigated the reactivity and expression of basal lamina collagen by Schwann cells (SCs) cultivated on a supraorganized bovine-derived collagen substrate. SC cultures were obtained from sciatic nerves of neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats and seeded on 24-well culture plates containing collagen substrate. The homogeneity of the cultures was evaluated with an SC marker antibody (anti-S-100). Afte...
متن کاملType X collagen synthesis during in vitro development of chick embryo tibial chondrocytes
In the developing chick embryo tibia type X collagen is synthesized by chondrocytes from regions of hypertrophy and not by chondrocytes from other regions (Capasso, O., G. Tajana, and R. Cancedda, 1984, Mol. Cell. Biol. 4:1163-1168; Schmid, T. M., and T. F. Linsenmayer, 1985, Dev. Biol. 107:375-381). To investigate further the relationship between differentiation of endochondral chondrocytes an...
