  • Title: The turnover of collagen in the dental pulp of rat incisors.
    Author: Orlowski WA.
    Journal: J Dent Res; 1977 Apr; 56(4):437-40. PubMed ID: 265973.
    Abstract:
    The turnover of collagen in the dental pulp was studied using H3-proline and microchemical techniques. The incorporation of label into the whole tissue was very high, with most of the label being incorporated into the noncollagenous substances. The rate of disappearance of label from collagen approximated the disappearance of label from noncollagenous components, suggesting that the whole pulp was undergoing rapid remodeling. There seems to be more than one metabolic pool of collagen.
