From @AlbanLongchamp Exciting new research shows that increasing levels of the enzyme CGL, which produces proangiogenic gas H2S, can improve blood flow and neovascularization in models of PAD. #angiogenesis #peripheralarterialdisease

Many text books and publications state “#collagen is the most abundant protein making up 30% of total protein in mammals”. However, a direct measurement is missing. Here, we quantified total collagen of entire mice, which is 12-17%. https://t.co/0MvBZiOjiA
