Regulation of collagen synthesis by ascorbic acid.
After prolonged exposure to ascorbate, collagen synthesis in cultured human skin fibroblasts increased approximately 8-fold with no significant change in synthesis of noncollagen protein. This effect of ascorbate appears to be unrelated to its cofactor function in collagen hydroxylation. The collagenous protein secreted in the absence of added ascorbate was normal in hydroxylysine but was mildl...
متن کاملRegulation of collagen synthesis and maturation
Proline analogs are readily incorporated into collagen and noncollagen proteins. Since the imino acid content of collagen is greater than other proteins, it is suggested that the incorporation of a proline analog into cellular protein would have a maximal effect on collagen metabolism. Us ing a partially purified amino acyl t R N A synthetase preparation, various proline analogs were tested for...
متن کاملRegulation of type VI collagen synthesis in transformed mesenchymal cells.
We have analysed the effects of oncogenic transformation on the expression of type VI collagen in mesenchymal cells. Synthesis of type VI collagen was almost completely inhibited in fibroblasts transformed by DNA or RNA tumour viruses or in cells derived from spontaneous mesenchymal tumours. Inhibition of type VI collagen synthesis appears, therefore, to be a common phenomenon of transformed me...

متن کاملRegulation of collagen synthesis by inhibitory Smad7 in cardiac myofibroblasts.
Transforming growth factor-beta(1) (TGF-beta(1)) signal and downstream Smads play an important role in tissue fibrosis and matrix remodeling in various etiologies of heart failure. Inhibitory Smad7 (I-Smad7) is an inducible regulatory Smad protein that antagonizes TGF-beta(1) signal mediated via direct abrogation of R-Smad phosphorylation. The effect of ectopic I-Smad7 on net collagen productio...
