A simple model of collagen remodeling

Abstract: In the present paper we propose and study a simple model of collagen remodeling occurring in latter stage of tendon healing process. The model is an integro-differential equation describing the possibility of an alignment of collagen fibers in a finite time. We show that the solutions may either exist globally in time or blow-up in a finite time depending on initial data. The latter behavior can be related to the healing of injury without the scar formation in a finite time: a full alignment of collagen fibers… Show more

“…The phenomenon that cells are able to sense direction is known from many biological scenarios, including chemotaxis and haptotaxis. It is known from the clinical practice but also had some reflection in emerging tendon healing models, see [25], that for the healing process the proper surgical intervention is of the highest importance. "Proper" means the best possible reconstruction of the collagen fibre arrangement along the longitudinal axis.…”

“…Only recently a simple model for the dynamics of collagen remodelling occurring in the latter stage of the tendon healing process was proposed by Dudziuk et al [25]. The authors propose an integro-differential equation describing the dynamics of the probability density of collagen fibres in space and orientation.…”

“…We show that the class corresponds to the partially integral stochastic semigroups and under some more restrictive assumptions leads to the stability result. We discuss possible applica-tions of the general theory such as redistribution of individuals - [10], thermal denaturation of DNA [7], and tendon healing process - [11].…”

“…In particular under some rather restrictive assumptions we observe that any, even non-factorized, initial probability density tends in the evolution to a factorized equilibrium probability density - [16]. We discuss possible applications of the general theory such as redistribution of individuals -[10], thermal denaturation of DNA [7], and tendon healing process - [11].…”
