## Abstract A human hepatoma cell line (HepG2) was cultured on positively and negatively charged polyelectrolytes. Cell/surface adhesion and cell shape evolution were followed with quartz microbalance with dissipation (QCMβD) and optical microscopy as a function of time, respectively. In particular

Rival theories of cell adhesion are divided into long-range or contact, respectively. An experimental observation capable of deciding between them is the increasing attachment of negatively charged ceils to surfaces of increasing negative charge density. These results would appear to refute hypothes
Collagens V and VI have been previously identified as specific extracellular matrix (ECM) ligands for the NG2 proteoglycan. In order to study the functional consequences of NG2/collagen interactions, we have utilized the GD25 cell line, which does not express the major collagen-binding beta(1) integ
