Abstract
Collagens present in the connective tissues of the extracellular matrix of fibrosarcoma were isolated and characterized. The fibrosarcoma was induced in rats by the administration of 3-methylcholanthrene. The results obtained were compared with normal muscle. An excess amount of type V collagen was found to be produced by the fibrosarcoma tissue compared to the normal muscle. Type V collagen from fibrosarcoma was characterized on the basis of solubility behavior in sodium chloride solutions, electrophoretic mobility on SDS-polyacrylamide gels, elution pattern of phosphocellulose chromatography and amino acid composition.Entities:
