Dermal collagen and lipid deposition correlate with tissue swelling and hydraulic conductivity in murine primary lymphedema

Melody Swartz

Primary lymphedema is a congenital pathology of dysfunctional lymphatic drainage characterized by swelling of the limbs, thickening of the dermis, and fluid and lipid accumulation in the underlying tissue. Two mouse models of primary lymphedema, the Chy mo ...

A nonradial coarse-grained potential for proteins produces naturally stable secondary structure elements

Matteo Dal Peraro, Michele Cascella, Davide Alemani

We introduce a nonradial potential term for coarse-grained (CG) molecular simulations of proteins. This term mimics the backbone dipole−dipole interactions and accounts for the needed directionality to form stable folded secondary structure elements. We sh ...

Biomechanics of Vascular Wall : the Role of Structural Organization of Elastin and Collagen

This thesis contributes to the field of biomechanics of vascular wall. The focus is particularly on the microstructure of vascular elastin and collagen constituents and their contribution to the macroscopic mechanical behavior of the wall. The analysis is ...

Experimental characterization of the distribution of collagen fiber recruitment

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Sylvain Roy, Christophe Boss

The passive biomechanical behavior of blood vessels is generally modeled by a parallel arrangement of elastin and collagen, with collagen recruitment depending on vessel strain. We experimentally determined the collagen recruitment distribution using confo ...

Compressed collagen gel: a novel scaffold for human bladder cells

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell, Florian Maria Wurm, Peter Frey

Collagen is highly conserved across species and has been used extensively for tissue regeneration; however, its mechanical properties are limited. A recent advance using plastic compression of collagen gels to achieve much higher concentrations significant ...
