Product Summary for Cultrex Mouse Laminin I, Pathclear

Why Use Cultrex Mouse Laminin I?
Cultrex Mouse Laminin I, Pathclear is purified from Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm (EHS) tumor and is Pathclear-certified to be free of common pathogens. Laminin I is a major component of the basement membrane which is a continuous sheet of specialized extracellular matrix that forms an interface between endothelial, epithelial, muscle, or neuronal cells and their adjacent stroma and that plays an essential role in tissue organization by influencing cell adhesion, migration, proliferation, and differentiation.

Negative for the presence of bacteria and fungi.

Background: Laminin-1

Laminins are heterotrimeric, noncollagenous glycoproteins composed of combinations of five known alpha, four beta and three gamma chains in mammals. One alpha, beta and gamma subunit self-assembles to form at least 15 coiled-coil heterotrimers. Through specific interactions with integrins, dystroglycan, and other receptors, laminins contribute to cell differentation, cell shape and migration, maintenance of tissue phenotypes and survival. Some subunits, such as Laminin gamma1 (Laminin B2), are present in several laminins; Laminin-1 (EHS laminin), Laminin-2 (merosin), Laminin-3 (S-laminin), Laminin-4 (S-merosin), Laminin-6 (K-laminin) and Laminin-7 (KS-laminin). Others, such as the beta3 and gamma2 subunits, occur in only one known combination (e.g. with alpha3 in Laminin-5 / Epiligrin).

    Verified Customer | Posted 09/16/2024
    I used Cultrex Mouse Laminin I, Pathclear as a coating (PLO/Laminin) on 6-well plates at a concentration of 10 µg/ml to improve the adhesion of neural progenitor cells (NPCs). The coating significantly enhanced cell attachment and supported robust growth. Additionally, I used it in the NPC culture medium at 1 µg/ml, where it further promoted cell maintenance and proliferation. This product performed exceptionally well and integrated smoothly into my cell culture protocol. Highly recommend!
