| Research Abstract |
Molecular mechanism for the inhibitory action of a cisplatin-DMSO complex on the collagen-fibril formation was investigated in vitro. The cisplatin complex was strongly suggested to target His and/or Met residues on the collagen triple helices. The complex was also shown to effectively inhibit the collagen fibril-formation and deposition in a human cell culture system.
