## Abstract Interactions between cells and the extracellular matrix (ECM) play essential roles in modulating cell behavior during development and disease. The myocardial ECM is composed predominantly of interstitial collagen type I and type III. The composition, organization, and accumulation of th

Elementary Na+ currents were recorded at 19 degrees C in cell-attached and inside-out patch-clamp experiments to study the influence of the vasoactive peptide angiotensin II (A II) and of the diacylglycerol analogue OAG (1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol) on open probability and gating properties of sin
Telomeres protect chromosomes from degradation, end-to-end fusion, and illegitimate recombination. Loss of telomeres may lead to cell death or senescence or may cause genomic instability, leading to tumor formation.

## Abstract Fibroblasts cultivated in threeβdimensional tissueβlike matrices are characterized by a slowed metabolism and a decrease of protein synthesis, unless they are submitted to physical tensions. We checked the effects of insulin like growth factorβI (IGFβI), known as a potent stimulator of
