Estrogen Depletion Results in Nanoscale Morphology Changes in Dermal Collagen
Tissue cryo-sectioning combined with atomic force microscopy imaging reveals that the nanoscale morphology of dermal collagen fibrils, quantified using the metric of D-periodic spacing, changes under the condition of estrogen depletion. Specifically, a new subpopulation of fibrils with D-spacings in the region between 56 and 59 nm is present 2 years following ovariectomy in ovine dermal samples...

s presented in this symposium were written by graduate students in the Univers ity of Hawaii Department of Zoology, 2538 The Mall, Honolulu, Hawaii 96822. the spati al pattern of the population was rand om. Of the remaining three populations, two showed a pattern of agg regation and one showed a patte rn of uniformity. Both sex and age differences were present in burrowing behavior and burrow s...

intraand intermolecular cross-linking produces fibrils and fibers, a process called aggregation. The most recently synthesized extracellular collagen can be extracted from the tissues with weak salt solutions (1 1). Increasing concentrations of salt extract older , 1.e. , increas ingly cross-linked, material. Eventually, only old, highly cross-linked collagen remains which can be removed from t...
متن کاملEstrogen depletion and drug treatment alter the microstructure of type I collagen in bone
The impact of estrogen depletion and drug treatment on type I collagen fibril nanomorphology and collagen fibril packing (microstructure) was evaluated by atomic force microscopy (AFM) using an ovariectomized (OVX) rabbit model of estrogen deficiency induced bone loss. Nine month-old New Zealand white female rabbits were treated as follows: sham-operated (Sham; n = 11), OVX + vehicle (OVX + Veh...
متن کاملNanoscale morphology of Type I collagen is altered in the Brtl mouse model of Osteogenesis Imperfecta.
Bone has a complex hierarchical structure that has evolved to serve structural and metabolic roles in the body. Due to the complexity of bone structure and the number of diseases which affect the ultrastructural constituents of bone, it is important to develop quantitative methods to assess bone nanoscale properties. Autosomal dominant Osteogenesis Imperfecta results predominantly from glycine ...
