- USA 85: 5254 (1988)] found that the previously demonstrated shortened pro-alpha-2 chain of type I collagen resulted from deletion of exon 28 which in turn resulted from substitution of G for A at the 3-prime end of intron 27. (coriell.org)
- The finding of a glycine substitution in a α1(I) chain of a patient with the milder type IV osteogenesis imperfecta phenotype requires modification of current molecular models for type II and IV osteogenesis imperfecta. (wustl.edu)

Disease1
- There are at least 8 different types of the disease. (lluch.org)
Dentinogenesis imperfecta1
- Children may have discolored and poorly developed teeth (called dentinogenesis imperfecta) depending on the type of osteogenesis imperfecta. (msdmanuals.com)
Cells3
- Scholars@Duke publication: Growth of mesenchymal stem cells on electrospun type I collagen nanofibers. (duke.edu)
- We reconstituted type I collagen nanofibers prepared by electrospin technology and examined the morphology, growth, adhesion, cell motility, and osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on three nano-sized diameters (50-200, 200-500, and 500-1,000 nm).

Mild2
- Osteogenesis imperfecta can range from mild to severe. (msdmanuals.com)
- Researchers suggested that achondrogenesis type III probably corresponds to type II and that type IV probably corresponds to mild type II (hypochondrogenesis). (medscape.com)
