collagen table Flashcards
1
Q
type I collagen
A
- Most CT, dermis, tendons/ligaments, bone, dentin, cementum, fibrocartilage, sclera
- thick fibers known as collagenous fibers
cells synthesizing it: fibroblasts, osteoblasts, odontoblasts, cementoblasts
2
Q
Type II collagen
A
CARTILAGE!
thin fibrils synthesized by chondroblasts
3
Q
Type III Collagen
A
in organs, smooth muscle and blood vessels.
thin fibers known as RETICULAR FIBERS
synthesized by reticular cells and smooth muscle cells
4
Q
Type IV
A
of the basal laminae!! Its a sheet like lattice, and is synthesized by epithelium and skeletal muscle
5
Q
Type VII
A
of the dermis, they are anchorinf fibrils synthesized by chondroblasts
6
Q
Type XII
A
tendons, ligaments and PDL. fibril-associated collagen, produced by fibroblasts
