Scientists from the Gladstone Institute of Neurological Disease (GIND), UCSF, and Stanford have discovered that a certain type of collagen, collagen VI, protects brain cells against amyloid-beta (Aβ) proteins, which are widely thought to cause Alzheimer's disease (AD). While the functions of collagens in cartilage and muscle are well established, before this study it was unknown that collagen VI is made by neurons in the brain and that it can fulfill important neuroprotective functions
Stem cell treatment leaves boy with recessive epidermolysis bullosa improving daily

Two-year-old Nate Liao is eating solid food, playing with his sibs and generally running around and getting into things. The reason? His body has started producing collagen VII, the material that anchor's a person's skin to the rest of his body. Before he was treated, the least contact could cause bruising and blisters. Eating anything non-liquid could tear the lining of his esophagus.
Some of Nate's doctors are suggesting that epidermolysis bullosa be taken "off the incurable list." Little Nate was given a mixture of bone marrow and cord blood stem cells

Pleiotrophin (PTN, Ptn) is an 18-kDa secretory cytokine expressed in many breast cancers; however, the significance of Ptn expression in breast cancer has not been established. We have now tested three models to determine the role of inappropriate expression of Ptn in breast cancer

"Adhesion of platelets to an injured vessel wall and platelet activation are critical events in the formation of a thrombus. Of the agonists involved in platelet activation, thrombin, collagen, and vWF are known to induce in vitro calcium mobilization in platelets. Using a calcium-sensitive fluorochrome and digital multichannel intravital microscopy to image unstimulated and stimulated platelets, calcium mobilization was monitored as a reporter of platelet activation (as distinct from platelet accumulation) during thrombus formation in live mice"

"Scientist have extracted the hardy, fibrous protein collagen from a 68-million-year-old thighbone that belonged to a Tyrannosaurus rex, jettisoning the long-held belief that ancient fossils could not provide protein samples for analysis. The protein was discovered in a femur (thighbone) unearthed four years ago under a thousand cubic yards of rock on a cliff in the Hell Creek Formation, which spans the Wyoming, Montana and the Dakotas in the northwestern U.S. "
