Review collagen-based biomaterials for wound healing.
With its wide distribution in soft and hard connective tissues, collagen is the most abundant of animal proteins. In vitro, natural collagen can be formed into highly organized, three-dimensional scaffolds that are intrinsically biocompatible, biodegradable, nontoxic upon exogenous application, and endowed with high tensile strength. These attributes make collagen the material of choice for wou...
متن کاملCollagen-Based Biomaterials for Tissue Engineering Applications
Collagen is the most widely distributed class of proteins in the human body. The use of collagen-based biomaterials in the field of tissue engineering applications has been intensively growing over the past decades. Multiple cross-linking methods were investigated and different combinations with other biopolymers were explored in order to improve tissue function. Collagen possesses a major adva...

متن کاملOptimal Interstrand Bridges for Collagen-like Biomaterials
In some natural collagen triple helices, cysteine (Cys) residues on neighboring strands are linked by disulfide bonds, enhancing association and maintaining proper register. Similarly, Cys-Cys disulfide bridges have been used to impose specific associations between collagen-mimetic peptides (CMPs). Screening a library of disulfide linkers in silico for compatibility with collagen identifies the...

Watkins, Lauren E. M.S.B.M.E., Purdue University, May 2016. Densified Collagen-Fibril Biomaterials for Bone Tissue Engineering. Major Professor: Sherry Voytik-Harbin. Millions of craniofacial bone defects occur annually as a result of trauma, congenital defects, disease, or tooth extraction1, 2. When present in the oral cavity, these defects are associated with adverse impacts on speech, mastic...
