Does PromoCell recommend growing their osteoblasts on type I collagen?
Description
PromoCell generally culture their HOB on uncoated tissue culture dishes. It is possible however to grow them on collagen type I- or fibronectin-coated dishes as well. Please note: The type of extracellular matrix used may influence the expression of certain genes (e.g. integrins) and thereby affect cellular metabolism. Therefore we recommend to always use the same type of coating matrix for a whole set of experiments.
