Ch 3 Tissue Healing: Collagen Flashcards
Predominant structural collagen of the body
Type I Collagen
Collagen that constitutes 80-85% of dermal collagen
Type I Collagen
Collagen that’s prominent in mature scars, tendon, bone, dentin, joints
Type I Collagen
Predominant component of hyaline cartilage (outer ear, end of nose, joint)
Type II Collagen
Collagen not present in skin
Type II Collagen
Collagen that’s found in nucleus pulposus external annulus
Type II Collage
Collagen that is prominent in vascular and visceral structures (blood vessels, GI tract, liver, uterus) but absent in bone and tendon
Type III Collagen
Collagen that constitutes 15-20% of dermal collagen
Type III Collagen
Collagen that is abundant in embyronic tissues
Type III Collagen
The first collagen deposited in wound healing (granulation tissues)
Type III Collagen
Collagen found in basement membranes (base of epithelial, endothelial, and mesenchymal cells found in developing fetus), glomeruli of kidney nephron
Type IV (4) Collagen
Collagen present in most tissues but never as a major component
Type V (5) Collagen
Collagen that’s prominent in fetal membrane, cornea, heart valve, minor component of skin, and synovial membrane
Type V (5) Collagen
Prevalent in most connective tissues
Type VI (6) Collagen
May be involved in matrix and bone disorders
Type VII (7) Collagen
Collagen that anchors filaments of lymphatic vessels
Type VII (7) Collagen
Secreted by rapidly proliferating cells
Type VIII (8) Collagen
