Abnormal collagen metabolism in cultured cells in osteogenesis imperfecta.

چکیده
Cells obtained from normal human skin synthesize predominantly type I collogen in culture. Cells obtained from the skin of an infant with a severe form of osteogenesis imperfecta were found to synthesize as much type III as type I collagen. Decreased synthesis of type I collagen could explain the tissue fragility observed in this case.

Osteogenesis imperfecta: the molecular basis of clinical heterogeneity.
During the last six years we have attempted to determine the molecular basis of osteogenesis irnperfecta (01) by analyzing the collagenous proteins synthesized by dermal fibroblasts cultured from affected individuals, their parents, and other family members. During that time we have studied members of more than 400 unrelated families, or, we estimate, between one and five percent of all familie...
متن کاملStudies on type I collagen in skin fibroblasts cultured from twins with lethal osteogenesis imperfecta.
Studies on type I procollagen produced by skin fibroblasts cultured from twins with lethal type II of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) showed that biosynthesis of collagen (measured by L-[5-(3)H]proline incorporation into proteins susceptible to the action of bacterial collagenase) was slightly increased as compared to the control healthy infant. SDS/PAGE showed that the fibroblasts synthesized and...
متن کاملA novel Gly to Arg substitution at position 388 of the 1 chain of type I collagen in lethal form of osteogenesis imperfecta
Cultured skin fibroblasts from a proband with a lethal form of osteogenesis imperfecta produce two forms of type I collagen chains, with normal and delayed electrophoretic migration; collagen of the proband’s mother was normal. Peptide mapping experiments localized the structural defect in the proband to 1(I) CB8 peptide in which residues 123 to 402 are spaned. Direct sequencing of amplified cD...

متن کاملCollagen defects in lethal perinatal osteogenesis imperfecta.
Quantitative and qualitative abnormalities of collagen were observed in tissues and fibroblast cultures from 17 consecutive cases of lethal perinatal osteogenesis imperfecta (OI). The content of type I collagen was reduced in OI dermis and bone and the content of type III collagen was also reduced in the dermis. Normal bone contained 99.3% type I and 0.7% type V collagen whereas OI bone contain...
