  2. Fibrillogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibrillogenesis

    Fibrillogenesis is the development of fine fibrils normally present in collagen fibers of connective tissue.It is derived from the New Latin fibrilla (meaning fibrils, or pertaining to fibrils) and Greek genesis (to create, the process by which something is created).

  3. Collagen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collagen

    Collagen is also abundant in corneas, blood vessels, the gut, intervertebral discs, and the dentin in teeth. [3] In muscle tissue, it serves as a major component of the endomysium. Collagen constitutes 1% to 2% of muscle tissue and accounts for 6% of the weight to skeletal muscle. [4] The fibroblast is the most common cell creating collagen in ...

  4. Fibril - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibril

    Since collagen fibrils have almost 50 binding components in vivo, the definite requirement to generate fibrillogenesis in vivo is still cryptic. [ 9 ] With acidic or saline solution, collagen can be extracted from tissues and rearrange into fibril by changing temperature or pH value. [ 10 ]

  5. FACIT collagen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FACIT_collagen

    FACIT collagen is found in various tissue areas to modulate the surface properties of collagen fibrils and generate tissue-specific three-dimensional patterns in the extracellular matrix. [3] For example, collagen XIV connects the fibrillar networks of the cartilage and skin, [ 3 ] and XII is found in connective tissues, particularly at the ...

  6. Fibrillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibrillation

    Fibrillation is the rapid, irregular, and unsynchronized contraction of muscle fibers. An important occurrence is with regard to the heart. Cardiology.

  7. Myocardial infarction complications - Wikipedia

    At a gross anatomical level, this staged is marked by a yellow pallor. Weeks 1-3 are marked on histology by abundant capillaries, and fibroblast infiltration. Fibroblasts start replacing the lost cardiomyocytes with collagen type 1 and leads to the granulation of tissue. After several weeks fibrosis occurs and heavy collagen formation.

  9. Myocardial scarring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myocardial_scarring

    After several days, collagen accumulation at the site of injury begins to occur. [10] As part of the extracellular matrix, granulated tissue consisting of fibrin, fibronectin, laminin, and glycosaminoglycan is suspended in a collagen base. [10] The extracellular matrix acts as scaffolding for the fibrillar collagen to form.
