title: [The immunomorphological characteristics of collagen in the mucosa of human bronchi].
abstract: By means of immunomorphological assay the character of different collagen types distribution in human bronchial mucosa has been investigated. It has been established that collagen tends to have a marked topographic specificity of distribution in human bronchial mucosa. Collagens of the I and the III types are mostly distributed in basal membranes of mucous glands' terminal parts. Collagens of the IV type are mostly intensively stained in the membranes of blood vessels and in the cell membranes of epithelial cells. In subjects with chronic inflammation staining of collagen of the I type is more marked along the bundles of fibrous structures in the loose connective tissue of mucosa and submucosa.
