• mice develop scaly skin 4 weeks after tamoxifen treatment

muscle
• in tamoxifen-treated mice, atomic force (AFM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of tail tendon collagen I revealed swollen and distorted fibrils, lack of cohesion, crimping and disordered fibrils, unlike in control mice where normal D-banding and consistently regular and aligned fibrils are observed
• AFM showed a large increase in height with swelling causing large jumps in profile analysis
• although the fibrillar D-banding period is not significantly altered, localized variations in the shape of the banding are observed, suggesting a disparity in quaternary collagen I structure
