Role of laminin in the attachment of PAM 212 (epithelial) cells to basement membrane collagen
TL;DR: Measurements of the attachment of the PAM 212 line of mouse epithelial cells to various collagen substrates show that these cells adhere preferentially to type IV, basement membrane collagen, which suggests that lamin is produced and utilized by these epithelium cells to attach to basement membranes collagen.

TL;DR: Because most differentiated cells are difficult to maintain in culture, laminin may be an important supplement in studies on cell differentiation in vitro.
Journal Article
Role of Laminin in the Attachment and Metastasis of Murine Tumor Cells
TL;DR: It is suggested that laminin promotes the attachment of metastatic tumor cells to basement membrane during the metastaatic process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modulation of the metastatic activity of melanoma cells by laminin and fibronectin
TL;DR: After removal of fibronectin or exposure to laminin, metastatic mouse melanoma cells had an increased affinity for basement membrane collagen, were more invasive of basement membranes in vitro, and produced more lung colonies in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI
Basement Membrane and the Invasive Activity of Metastatic Tumor Cells
TL;DR: Understanding the specific steps involved in the invasion process should allow development of antimetastatic regimens directed at those activities specific to metastatic tumor cells.
