Understanding mechanisms of myofibrillar protein gelation is important for development of
gel-type muscle foods. The protein-protein interactions are largely responsible for the heat …

Collagens are the most abundant proteins of the extracellular matrix, and the hierarchical
folding and supramolecular assembly of collagens into banded fibers is essential for …

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare congenital bone dysplasia characterized by high
fracture rates and broad variations in clinical manifestations ranging from mild to …

Intrafibrillar mineralization plays a critical role in attaining desired mechanical properties of
bone. It is well known that amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) infiltrates into the collagen …

Silver nanoparticles loaded fibrillar collagen-chitosan matrix (CC) was prepared by
biomimetic approach by blending silver nanoparticles (tAgNPs), collagen fibril and chitosan …

As the most important tenderness related protein in mammal, there are few studies on how
the nanoscale morphology of collagen I in tissues is related to traditional meat processing …

In order to clarify the influence of the thermal degradation of collagen fibers on the texture
profile analysis (TPA) parameters of pig trotter stewed with soy sauce (PTSWSS), TPA …

Piezoelectricity of Type I collagen can provide the stress-generated potential that is
considered to be one of the candidate mechanisms to explain bone's adaptation to loading …

Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a brittle bone disease, is known to result in severe bone
fragility. However, its ultrastructural origins are still poorly understood. In this study, we …

Collagen is the primary protein component in mammalian connective tissues. Over the last
20 years, evidence has mounted that collagen matrices exhibit substantial heterogeneity in …
