Scleroprotein
Definition:
Example Sentences:

(7) The importance of lipids in collagen formation was corroborated: by accumulation of lipids, which preceded the hydroxyproline increase (scleroproteins, collagen), by development of the proliferative-cellular reaction together with the higher phospholipid-hydroxyproline level as compared with control, by formation of earlier sclerosis of silicotic nodes in "condensed" silicosis with the simultaneous increase in absolute content of phospholipids and total lipids.
