cells of the developing placenta in establishing connections with maternal tissues to support embryo development.
Established
cell lines exhibited several inherent endothelial
properties, including the expression of constitutive and inducible levels of endothelial
cell adhesion molecules E-selectin, intercellular
adhesion molecule - 1, and vascular
cell adhesion molecule - 1, internalization of acetylated low - density lipoprotein, and formation of loop structures on Matrigel surfaces.
However, because IFN - γ is widely known to influence several endothelial
properties, such as junctional integrity (21) and
adhesion molecule expression (22), we elected to remove this cytokine from cultures immediately after the second session of
cell selection.
«Nanostructured materials are ideally suited to study the impact that spatial
properties at the single molecule level have on
cell adhesion.»
