Cells Stiffen Localized Matrix
12/09/20
Publication Title:
Dermal Fibroblasts and Triple-Negative Mammary Epithelial Cancer Cells Differentially Stiffen their Local Matrix
Advanced BioMatrix Products Used:
RatCol® Type I Rat Tail Collagen, 4 mg/ml, Telocollagen
How the products were used:
RatCol® type I rat tail collagen was used to embed cells while studying how the cells differentially stiffen their local matrix.
Article Conclusion:
The results suggest that MDAs adapt to the bulk ECM stiffness, while Dermal Fibroblasts regulate local stiffness to levels they intrinsically prefer.
