Laminin and fibronectin are glycoproteins that influence cell behavior and mediate cell/substratum adhesion. We have examined the interaction of these macromolecules with the serine protease plasminogen activator (PA) in two types of extracellular matrices; one produced by the murine Engelbreth-Holm
Previous work (Maxwell and Forbes: Development 101:767-776, 1987) has shown that an overlay of reconstituted basement membrane-like (RBM) gel dramatically increased the number of catecholaminepositive (CA + ) cells which differentiated in neural crest cultures. We report here that this increase was
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) receptors and the biological response to PTH in osteoblasts have been shown to be influenced by glucocorticoids, growth factors, cytokines or PTH itself. Furthermore, components of extracellular matrix (ECM) appear to regulate the response to PTH as well. We investigated th
## Abstract Inhibition of osteoblast‐mediated mineralization is one of the major catabolic effects of parathyroid hormone (PTH) on bone. Previously, we showed that PTH induces matrix γ‐carboxyglutamic acid (Gla) protein (MGP) expression and established that this induction is critical for PTH‐mediat
