This study uses artificial collagen to show that integrins and DDRs have opposing roles in PC12 cell differentiation.

This study identifies the molecular mechanism by which collagen VII's A2 domain recognizes triple helix motifs in fibrillar collagens, revealing structural insights into anchoring fibril formation and its implications for skin fragility diseases.

This study develops tunable platinum cross-linked collagen matrices to investigate how mechanical properties affect cancer cell behavior and drug response.

The paper identifies triple-helical peptides that selectively bind the closed α2I domain of integrin α2β1 without requiring Glu or metal ions, revealing a new binding mode.

The paper describes a method to fluorescently label newly synthesized collagen fibers using DAF-FM and DAR-4M probes to study collagen dynamics in vertebrate tissues.
