Does precoating culture dishes have any adverse effects on HUVEC?
Precoating culture vessels with extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins does not have adverse effects on Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVEC).
However, ECM coatings such as fibronectin, collagen, or gelatin have been reported to influence cellular gene and protein expression patterns.
Recommendation
To ensure reliable and comparable results, we strongly recommend using the same culture conditions throughout an entire experimental series, including:
