Zusammenfassung:The present application relates to use of transglutaminases to treat various tissue matrix products. The methods can include application of a transglutaminase to a partially denatured collagen-containing tissue matrix and implantation of the tissue matrix. The transglutaminase can facilitate adhesion with another collagen- containing tissue matrix, tissue surrounding the tissue matrix after implantation, or both.
