Abstract

A number of factors have been implicated in the regulation of collagen fibril diameter. Electron microscopy analysis was used to investigate the role of sex on fibril diameter. Female mouse skin collagen fibrils' mean diameter values were significantly smaller than those from the male, independent of age. In addition, the female rabbit collagen fibrils had a marked decrease in the mean diameter compared to male, in all the tissues examined (skin, liver, and bone). These data suggest that the collagen fibril diameter is related to sex.

摘要

许多因素与胶原纤维直径的调节有关。采用电子显微镜分析来研究性别对纤维直径的作用。雌性小鼠皮肤胶原纤维的平均直径值显著小于雄性小鼠，且与年龄无关。此外，在所有检测的组织（皮肤、肝脏和骨骼）中，雌性兔的胶原纤维平均直径相比雄性有显著降低。这些数据表明胶原纤维直径与性别有关。
