Neurite lengths were measured on coated culture substrata and compared using one way ANOVA. Two bars for each substrate show mean neurite lengths at day 5 and day 15. (A) Neurite lengths on pLL were significantly (***p<0.001) shorter than any primary coating substrate. Laminin substrates had the longer neurites (*p<0.05). (B): No significant difference was observed in neurite lengths with the addition of 5 or 10 μg/cm2 laminin. (C): The addition of laminin or heparan sulphate significantly increased neurite lengths over composite collagen substrata (*p<0.05). (D) Mean GFAP immunofluorescence was quantified: pLL substrates (***p<0.001) and composite collagen substrates (*p<0.05) supported extensive glial differentiation.
