Figure 7From: The extracellular matrix controls gap junction protein expression and function in postnatal hippocampal neural progenitor cellsLaminin and laminin-ECM mixtures but not poly-L-lysine alter the expression of Cx43. The number of Cx43 expressing cells was reduced when NPCs were plated on laminin or a Matrigel matrix composed of laminin/collagen/entactin but not when cultures were plated on poly-L-lysine. *p < 0.05, ANOVA, post-hoc Dunnett's t-test compared to neurospheres cultured in the absence of matrix.Back to article page
