Examination of total RNA extracted from fibroblasts and tissues of enlarged gingivae demonstrated increased type VI collagen steady-state mRNA levels. These results suggest that excessive deposition of type VI collagen in drug-induced gingival enlargement is attributed to increased expression of the collagen genes. divi From: Divya Shetty <rite.to.divs@...> Sent: Tuesday, 3 April 2012 7:14 PM Subject: gingival enlargement what is the type of collagen seen in drug induced ginigval enlargement?
