Different mechanisms in the attachment of cells to native and denatured collagen

Schor, Seth L., Court, Janet·1979·Journal of Cell Science

Abstract

The attachment of cells to collagen has been reported previously to require the presence of serum and the particular serum protein involved in this process, variously known as CIG, CAP or fibronectin, has been isolated. This conclusion that cell attachment to collagen requires serum (or more precisely, fibronectin) is based on experiments measuring the kinetics of cell attachment to films of collagen. We have measured the kinetics of attachment of HeLa and PyBHK cells to different collagen-containing substrata under a variety of experimental conditions and present evidence that the serum-dependent mechanism of cell attachment described by others is actually only the case for films of denatured collagen, while cell attachment to native collagen fibres occurs by a different, serum-independent, mechanism. The possible relevance of these findings to cell-matrix interactions in vivo is discussed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
