AGEing Peptides: Synthesis and Analysis of Peptides Site-Specifically Modified by Advanced Glycation Endproducts
… blocks into collagen model peptides and collagen telopeptides was successfully carried out using Fmoc solid phase peptide synthesis protocol. A straightforward and cost-effective synthetic procedure to access CML-containing peptides via on-resin N-alkylation of lysyl amines has also been …

Structural Analysis of Reconstituted Collagen Type I - Heparin Cofibrils
… of the experiments showed that the presence of telopeptides and heparin both had significant effects on the structural and mechanical characteristics of in vitro reconstituted fibrillar collagen type I. The implemented structural analysis showed that the presence of telopeptides in acid soluble …

Engineering Collagen Nanostructure to Enable Stiff & Tough Cartilage Biomaterials
… biomaterials, the impact on composition and telopeptides on the mechanics and nanostructure of collagen were investigated (Chapter 2). In the first of two applications of collagen as a biomaterial for cartilage tissue engineering in this work, collagen was then investigated as part of a …

Biomarkers of Bone Turnover in Vegetarians and Omnivores
… deoxypyridinoline, and N-telopeptides, and of bone turnover—serum and urinary osteocalcin(OC), skeletal alkaline phosphatase, and propeptide-type-I-carboxyterminal-procollagen(PICP). In all subjects, biomarker levels were significantly lower in women ages 27-33yr compared …

The Fruit of Poncirius Trifoliata Promotes Mesenchymal Stem Cell Differentiation into Osteoblasts in Glucocorticoid-induced Osteoporosis Model
… and a biomarker of bone-resorption, C-terminal telopeptides of type I collagen (CTX), were evaluated in the serum of the GIO mice. We surmised that if poncirin induce mesenchymal stem cell differentiation into osteoblast, it might contribute to increase bone mass. To address this issue, poncirin …

A quantitative proteomics study of the additive effect of inflammatory cytokines and injurious compression on cartilage damage
… regulated or marginally elevated. Many collagen telopeptides are down regulated, possibly indicating reduced anabolism. However, attempts at repair exist, as shown by increased levels of TGF-[beta] and activin A, and reduced levels of LTBP1. Also, biglycan and lumican, SLRPs known to be involved …
