  • Title: Collagen diseases and the biosynthesis of collagen.
    Author: Prockop DJ, Guzman NA.
    Journal: Hosp Pract; 1977 Dec; 12(12):61-8. PubMed ID: 924426.
    Abstract:
    Increasing knowledge concerning the molecular structure of collagen and the steps involved in its biosynthesis provides the basis for a new look at the collagen diseases. Some, like the Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, are now known to be the expression of primary molecular defects; others, such as scurvy and scleroderma, appear to be secondary to some process that disrupts normal controls over collagen synthesis or deposition.
