  • Title: Epidermal cells adhere preferentially to type IV (basement membrane) collagen.
    Author: Murray JC, Stingl G, Kleinman HK, Martin GR, Katz SI.
    Journal: J Cell Biol; 1979 Jan; 80(1):197-202. PubMed ID: 422650.
    Abstract:
    Epidermal cells from adult guinea pig skin attach and differentiate preferentially on substrates of type IV (basement membrane) collagen, compared to those of types I--III collagen. In contrast, guinea pig dermal fibroblasts attach equally well to all four collagen substrates. Fibronectin mediates the attachment of fibroblasts but not of epidermal cells to collagen.
