A New Candidate Substrate for Cell-Matrix Adhesion Study: The Acellular Human Amniotic Matrix
In vivo adhesions between cells and the extracellular matrix play a crucial role in cell differentiation, proliferation, and migration as well as tissue remodeling. Natural three-dimensional (3D) matrices, such as self-assembling matrices and Matrigel, have limitations in terms of their biomechanica...
