DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.14074
Abstract: Fibrosis is characterized by the excessive deposition of extracellular matrix and crosslinked proteins, in particular collagen and elastin, leading to tissue stiffening and disrupted organ function. Lysyl oxidases are key players during this process, as… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ma13235483
Abstract: Antioxidants are known for their potential of strengthening the collagen network when applied to dentin. They establish new intra-/intermolecular bonds in the collagen, rendering it less perceptive to enzymatic hydrolysis. The study evaluated the benefit… read more here.
