...P.B. Noble; E.D. Shields Three-dimensional loçomotory trajectories have been determined for an embryonic fibroblast population and also for these cells after a 20-day period in tissue culture (C-20 cells). Differences in loçomotory characteristics between these two cell populations are reported...

... developed, rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and numerous filopodia. Some of the superficially located M cells containing accumulated cytoplasmic filaments are small and less active than the lower M cells. The second type resembling fibroblasts (F type) possesses dispersed nuclear chromatin...

...-inhibited human fibroblasts were incubated in Dulbecco culture medium containing control or EPH umbilical cord serum and supplemented with 14 C-glucosamine or 35 S-sulfate. Radioactive GAGs were isolated, submitted to electrophoretic fractionation and quantified. Results: The presence of umbilical cord...

...Jyrki Kössi; Matti Laato Viscose cellulose sponge implants in the rat and fibroblast cultures established from granulation tissue, hypertrophic scar, or keloid were treated with different concentrations of glucose, fructose, galactose, mannose, and sucrose. The concentrations of the above-mentioned...
