The outer wall of small airways is a major site of remodeling in fatal asthma.

8 Apr 2009 BACKGROUND: Structural and inflammatory changes in asthma involve both the large and small airways, with involvement of the distal lung being related to disease severity. We have previously shown that changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM) ... Read more...

Distribution of extracellular matrix components in normal and degenerated canine tricuspid valve leaflets.

30 Mar 2009 The aim of the present study was to investigate the composition and distribution of various extracellular matrix (ECM) components in normal canine tricuspid valves (TVs) and in TVs affected by chronic valvular disease (CVD). The parietal (pTV) and ... Read more...

Distribution of tenascin-C, fibronectin and collagen types III and IV during regeneration of rat submandibular gland.

16 Dec 2008 The aim of this study was to determine the localization of tenascin-C, fibronectin and collagen types III and IV during regeneration of the rat submandibular gland. After 7 days' obstruction, the regenerating glands were collected at days 0, 1, 3, ... Read more...

Technical information about 'Collagen Type III'

Definition: A fibrillar collagen consisting of three identical alpha1(III) chains that is widely distributed in many tissues containing COLLAGEN TYPE I. It is particularly abundant in BLOOD VESSELS and may play a role in tissues with elastic characteristics.
