Corning™ BioCoat™ Collagen IV Multiwell Plates

Product Code. 10595801

Brand: Corning™ 354430

Description

Type IV Collagen is a ubiquitous component in basement membranes and provides the major structural support for this matrix. Collagen IV is useful as a substrate for growth of epithelial, endothelial, muscle, and nerve cells.

• Type IV Collagen is a ubiquitous component in basement membranes and provides the major structural support for this matrix. When the Collagen IV meshwork is assembled, it provides a scaffold for the assembly of other basement membrane components through interactions with laminin, entactin/nidogen, and heparan sulfate proteoglycan. Collagen IV is useful as a substrate for growth of epithelial, endothelial, muscle, and nerve cells. Collagen plays a role in the regulation of cell growth, differentiation and adhesion, as well as tissue formation.

Applications include:

• Promotion of cell attachment and spreading
• Cell differentiation and neurite outgrowth
• Increased proliferation of PC12 cells
• Studies of effects of collagen IV on cell behavior
• Cell adhesion assays
