Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Review of Connective Tissue Research, Volume 8, provides an overview of the state of knowledge in connective tissue research. The details of the structure of collagen and its biosynthesis are now well established, and attention has focused on the finer details of the biochemical mechanisms involved. The knowledge achieved so far is also being applied to studies of various physiological, developmental, and pathological mechanisms involving the connective tissues. These trends are reflected in the subject covered by this volume. The enzymes involved in the posttranslation modifications of collagen are being intensively investigated. The book deals with three of these: lysyl oxidase, the enzyme involved in the first stage of cross-link formation; and the two glycosyl transferases involved in the glycosylation of hydroxylysome residues. New collagen types are reviewed together with recent work on collagen messenger RNA. Both of these topics are important to the understanding of the control of collagen biosynthesis. The involvement of connective tissues in physiological and pathological processes is discussed in three areas. These are interaction of collagen with platelets in hemostasis; the biosynthesis of connective tissue components by smooth muscle cells; and biochemical research on the intervertebral disc, the disease of which is behind the majority of back pain problems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Review of Connective Tissue Research is a compilation of scientific research mainly focuses on developments in special tissues. A detailed discussion of the lung and liver is included. Another topic of interest is the liver fibrosis development induced by parasitic infection or alcohol. The periodontal ligament is specialized tissue whose basic role is tooth support. This tissue is covered in detail. A section of the book provides an analysis of the elastin gene expression and regulation. Topics such as the microfibrillar components of connective tissue, the regulation of collagen genes, the complexity and the evolution of the collagen molecule, the invasiveness of malignant tumors, and the characteristics of fibroblast are fully explained. The text presents an exhaustive description of the connective tissue of the lung. This chapter includes a comprehensive description of the pulmonary system. The book will provide useful information to doctors, students, researchers and specialists in the field of human anatomy.
Download or read book International Review of Connective Tissue Research written by David A. Hall and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Review of Connective Tissue Research, Volume 9 provides information pertinent to the fundamental aspects of connective tissue research. This book reviews the methods involved in chromosome mapping of genes and their application to genes. Organized into six chapters, this volume begins with an overview of basement membranes updates. This text then examines the widespread use of the methods of immunofluorescence and immune electron microscopy. Other chapters consider the degradation of collagen in vivo that is of necessity under close biological control. This book discusses as well the nature and role of inhibitors of the collagenolytic enzymes in normal and pathological conditions. The final chapter emphasizes that in addition to the multiplicity of functions of connective tissue in various organs, the formation of this tissue is the major mechanism of the repair of damaged tissues in species that have lost the power of regeneration. This book is a valuable resource for biochemists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Review of Connective Tissue Research, Volume 7 focuses on the structural aspects of the connective tissues and their compounds. This book reviews the data concerning the primary structure of collagen and explores the physical features of elastin. Organized into six chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the amino acid sequence of collagen. This text then examines the relationship of the structure and function of elastic tissues and reviews the usefulness of immunological methods when applied to structural studies. Other chapters consider the substantial progress in the elucidation of the antigen determinants of the collagen molecule. This book discusses as well the immunological properties of collagen that may have considerable bearing on the causes of some connective tissue diseases. The final chapter deals with the extensive investigations into glycoproteins in various connective tissues of various species at various ages. This book is a valuable resource for biochemists and physicians.

Download or read book Regulation of matrix Accumulation written by and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regulation of Matrix Accumulation discusses the development of research and studies on connective tissue. This book emphasizes biochemical characterization of individual connective tissue components and interactions between cells and extracellular macromolecules. Other topics include the intracellular turnover of collagen; biological regulation of collagenase activity; feedback regulation of collagen synthesis; steroid hormone regulation of extracellular matrix proteins; and control of elastin synthesis, including its molecular and cellular aspects. The catalytic and biological properties of elastases; characterization and regulation of lysyl oxidase; and matrix accumulation and the development of form, considering proteoglycans and branching morphogenesis, are explained as well. Included in this text is an autobiography and personal retrospective by Miles Partridge, one of the contributors that greatly influenced the progress in understanding extracellular matrix biology. This publication is a good reference for students and researchers conducting work on biology, specifically on connective tissue.
