The extracellular matrix (ECM) is the non-cellular environment outside of the cell that directs multicellular organization and provides structural support for tissues. The ECM provides anchorage for cells and connects directly to the cell cytoskeleton through transmembrane receptors. These interactions control vital cell functions, such as proliferation, differentiation, migration, polarity, and survival, and these processes are regulated through modulation of the cell’s epigenetic program and signal transduction cascades.
ECM proteins have revolutionized in vitro and in vivo cell models by providing optimal environmental conditions to promote physiologically relevant cellular structure and function. These proteins have been used to:
- Develop several organotypic models using 3-D culture
- To provide barriers
- To evaluate metastatic potential
- To improve cellular implantation and evaluate angiogenesis in vivo
- To maintain stem cells in an undifferentiated state
- To induce stem cell differentiation
Trevigen proudly offers a full range of ECM proteins to meet your research needs.
