Collagenase-resistant collagen promotes mouse aging and vascular cell senescence

Collagen fibrils become resistant to cleavage over time. We hypothesized that resistance to type I collagen proteolysis not only marks biological aging but also drives it. To test this, we followed mice with a targeted mutation (Col1a1(r/r)) that yields collagenase-resistant type I collagen. Compare...
