Abstract (sommario):
Cartilage fibrils contain collagen II as the major constituent, but the presence of additional components, minor collagens, and noncollagenous glycoproteins is thought to be crucial for modulating several fibril properties. We have examined the distribution of two fibril constituents—decorin and collagen IX—in samples of fibril fragments obtained after bovine cartilage homogenization. Decorin was preferentially associated with a population of thicker fibril fragments from adult articular cartilage, but was not present on the thinnest fibrils. The binding was specific for the gap regions of the

Abstract (sommario):
The deposition of dense fibril plaques represents the pathological hallmark for a multitude of human disorders, including many neurodegenerative diseases. Fibril plaques are predominately composed of amyloid fibrils, characterized by their underlying cross beta-sheet architecture. Research into the mechanisms of amyloid formation has mostly focused on characterizing and modeling the growth of individual fibrils and associated oligomers from their monomeric precursors. Much less is known about the mechanisms causing individual fibrils to assemble into ordered fibrillar suprastructures. Elucidat

Abstract (sommario):
A new method is presented to extract collagen fibrils from mammalian tendon tissue. Mammalian tendons are treated with a trypsin-based extraction medium and gently separated with tweezers in an aqueous solution. Collagen fibrils released in the solution are imaged using both dark-field light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The method successfully extracts isolated fibrils from rat tail and patellar tendons. To examine whether the method is likely to damage fibrils during extraction, sea cucumber dermis fibril lengths are compared against those obtained using only distilled water.

We show that the mechanism of fibronectin fibril formation on the blastocoel roof of the Xenopus embryo is comparable to that in other systems. Fibril assembly is inhibited by RGD peptide, by an amino-terminal fragment of fibronectin, and by cytochalasin B. When added exogenously, intact fibronectin, but not a 110 kDa cell binding fragment of fibronectin, is incorporated into fibrils. Thus, the blastocoel roof of Xenopus represents a valid model system for the study of fibronectin fibril formation in situ.

Abstract (sommario):
Collagen is most abundant in animal tissues as very long fibrils with a characteristic axial periodic structure. The fibrils provide the major biomechanical scaffold for cell attachment and anchorage of macromolecules, allowing the shape and form of tissues to be defined and maintained. How the fibrils are formed from their monomeric precursors is the primary concern of this review. Collagen fibril formation is basically a self-assembly process (i.e. one which is to a large extent determined by the intrinsic properties of the collagen molecules themselves) but it is also sensitive to cell-medi

The dynamic surface properties of aqueous dispersions of α-lactalbumin (ALA) amyloid fibrils differ noticeably from the properties of the fibril dispersions of other globular proteins.

Unlike the fibrils of β-lactoglobulin and lysozyme, ALA fibrils can be easily purified from hydrolyzed peptides and native protein molecules.

Abstract (sommario):
The division of amyloid fibril particles through fragmentation is implicated in the progression of human neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson’s disease. Fragmentation of amyloid fibrils plays a crucial role in the propagation of the amyloid state encoded in their three-dimensional structures and may have an important role in the spreading of potentially pathological properties and phenotypes in amyloid-associated diseases. However, despite the mechanistic importance of fibril fragmentation, the relative stabilities of different types or different polymorphs of amyloid fibrils toward f

Tetramolecular junctions occur when two fibrils converge, creating a third branch with twice the mass/length of its constituents.

It has recently become apparent that collagen fibrils may be composed of more than one kind of macromolecule. To explore this possibility, we developed a procedure to purify fibril fragments from 17-d embryonic chicken sternal cartilage.

Pepsin digestion of this fibril preparation releases collagen types II, IX, and XI in the proportion of 8:1:1.

The distribution of collagen XI in fibril fragments from 17-d chick embryo sternal cartilage was determined by immunoelectron microscopy using specific polyclonal antibodies. The protein was distributed throughout the fibril fragments but was antigenically masked due to the tight packing of collagen molecules and could be identified only at sites where the fibril structure was partially disrupted. Collagens II and IX were also distributed uniformly along fibrils but, in contrast to collagen XI, were accessible to the antibodies in intact fibrils. Therefore, cartilage fibrils are heterotypicall

The current standard of care for hereditary ATTR is liver transplantation, which replaces the mutantTTRgene with the wild-type gene. However, the procedure is often followed by cardiac deposition of wild-type TTR secreted by the new liver. Here we fin

In details, the carboxyl groups on the collagen fibrils were used as a reaction field for adsorption of Ca2+ ions and promoted the formation of hydroxyapatite crystals.

Amyloid fibrils, such as those found in Alzheimer's and the gelsolin amyloid diseases, result from the misassembly of peptides produced by either normal or aberrant intracellular proteolytic processing.

The resulting peptide fragment assembles into fibrils promoting the formation of melanin pigment granules. These results, along with the observation that amyloid fibril formation by bacteria is

Amyloid fibrils are cross-β–rich aggregates that are exceptionally stable forms of protein assembly. Accumulation of tau amyloid fibrils is involved in many neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Heparin-induced aggregates have been widely used and assumed to be a good tau amyloid fibril model for most biophysical studies. Here we show that mature fibrils made of 4R tau variants, prepared with heparin or RNA, spontaneously depolymerize and release monomers when their cofactors are removed.
