Abstract:

The collagens are a family of related proteins which contain at least one triple-helical domain, a structure which is determined by the unique amino acid sequence of the polypeptide subunits. These proteins each have a specific function in the extracellullar matrices of connective tissues of multicellular organisms. In humans, type I collagen, the most abundant collagen type, is the major structural component of skin, tendon and bone. Mutations in the two genes encoding the subunits of type I collagen, COL1A1 and COL1A2, result in heterogeneous phenotypes. Some mutations result in osteogenesis

Abstract:

This thesis explores the biophysics of collagen in the extracellular matrix under external stimuli, by performing cutting edge MD simulations. The obtained results provide significant insights into the design and manufacturing of artificial biomaterials for surgical tissue treatments, of collagen for regenerative medicine applications, and of gold nanoparticles for biomedical applications. The probed biophysical properties consist of the structural properties and the mechanical properties, where the mechanical properties of collagen are regulated by its structure at different levels of hierarc

Abstract:

Dentin hypersensitivity is a condition that affects 4 – 14% of western populations like the U.K. It is characterised by a short sharp pain in the gums, usually experienced when an individual consumes cold food or drink. Typical treatments that are primarily delivered by sensitive toothpastes initially relied upon disruption of neuronal activity with potassium ions. However, more recently the most advanced over the counter treatments now act to occlude the tubules present in dentin that are involved in the hydrodynamic cause of dentinal pain. Pre-clinically, the efficacy of these occlusive trea

Abstract:

In osteogenesis imperfecta, an osteoporotic phenotype results from mutations in the protein coding regions of the collagen type I genes - COLIA1 and COLIA2. Genetic factors are known to play an important role in determining bone mass. For this reason, it was considered that more subtle mutations in the transcriptional control regions of the collagen type I genes might be associated with osteoporosis. The polymerase chain reaction was used, followed by single-stranded conformation polymorphism detection (PCR/SSCP) to screen for polymorphisms in the transcriptional control regions (the promoter

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Congenital Hepatic Fibrosis (CHF) is caused by mutations in PKHD1, a gene encoding for fibrocystin, a protein of unknown function, expressed in cholangiocyte cilia and centromers. In CHF, biliary dysgenesis is accompanied by severe progressive portal fibrosis and portal hypertension. The mechanisms responsible for portal fibrosis in CHF are unclear. The αvβ6 integrin mediates local activation of TGFβ1 and is expressed by reactive cholangiocytes during cholestasis. To understand the mechanisms of fibrosis in CHF we studied the expression of αvβ6 integrin and its regulation
