First-trimester human placental villi were cultured on 3H-leucine-labeled extracellular matrices isolated from the PF HR9 and PYS-2 cell lines. Both cell lines produced an extracellular matrix that contained basement membrane-specific macromolecules, including type IV collagen, laminin and proteogly

## Abstract A highly metastatic variant (ESb) of a methylcholβanthreneβinduced T lymphoma elaborates a heparan sulfate (HS) degrading endoglycosidase (heparanase) to a much higher extent than its nonβmetastatic parental subline (Eb). Whereas a serumβfree medium conditioned by either subline contain
Urokinase (u-PA) and the urokinase receptor (u-PAR), are thought to play a critical role in the invasive and metastatic properties of cancer cells. The HT29 human colon-carcinoma cell line was selected to evaluate these aspects. HT29 cells express u-PA receptors (100,000 sitedcell, K, = I .5 nM), bu
Assembly of extracellular collagen fibrils and Schwann cell basal lamina has previously been identified as a prerequisite for compact myelin formation in the peripheral nervous system. Synthesis of this extracellular matrix (ECM) in vitro required the presence of serum and ascorbic acid. Using rat e
## Malignant gliomas are characterized by an extensive invasion of tumor cells into the normal brain parenchyma. A substantial amount of data indicates that cell movement in general is regulated by specific interactions between extracellular matrix components and specific cell-surface receptors. I
## Abstract Integrin Ξ±Ο Ξ²6 plays a very important role in the progression of colon cancer cells and is now defined as a novel, independent prognostic indicator for aggressive colon cancer in humans. Herein, we use the RNA interfering technology to downregulate the expression of Ξ±Ο Ξ²6 in colon cancer
