A method to quantitate collagen synthesis, total protein synthesis, and DNA in 24-well culture plates is presented. Collagen-producing cells such as human intestinal smooth muscle cells and dermal fibroblasts were pulse-labeled with [3H]proline. After incubation, the plates were heated to 90 degrees

Collagen types synthesized by murine bone marrow cells were studied and the effect of lithium chloride on collagen biosynthesis in vitro was investigated. In the liquid culture system used, an adherent, mixed cell population supports hemopoiesis. Radioactive labeling of cell cultures and subsequent
Both in vivo and in vitro experiments were conducted to determined the effects of digitoxin on the secretion of testosterone, and its underlying mechanisms including testicular adenosine 3Ј:5Ј-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP), and the activities of steroidogenic enzymes. Male rats were injected with digi
## Abstract Collagen deposition is an important process that occurs during wound healing. We and others have shown that nitric oxide (NO) is important in tendon healing. The mechanisms whereby healing is enhanced are, however, undetermined. The aim of this study was to investigate whether NO could
