Expression of type IV collagen by Lewis pulmonary carcinoma cells.
Study of the expression of type IV collagen by Lewis pulmonary carcinoma cells (PLMG-T, PLMG-M1, PLMG-M2) showed that these cells produce type IV collagen. The expression of type IV collagen in PLMG-T and PLMG-M2 cells approximately 2-fold surpassed that in PLMG-M1 cells. The number of active cells (synthesizing type IV collagen) in PLMG-M1 culture was 1.6 and 2.2 times lower than in PLMG-M2 and PLMG-T cultures, respectively. It was found that cell culture medium modulated expression of type IV collagen and this effect was mediated via cell receptors.
