Collagen synthesis in cells with trisomy 7 and 9 derived from human spontaneous abortuses was found to be lower (5.06% and 5.53% respectively) than in the control diploid cells (8.80%). The ratio of collagen types (I/III) in trisomic strains did not differ from the control data while the amount of the degraded procollagen in trisomic cells was increased.
