Diabetes does not alter fibroblast adhesion. Diabetic and LC cardiac fibroblasts were allowed to adhere to microtiter plates coated with BSA or collagen type I or wells that were left uncoated. No significant differences (p>0.05) in adhesion between LC and diabetic fibroblasts were measured on any of the substrates tested. Within the cell populations, LC (#) and diabetic fibroblasts (*) demonstrated significantly greater adhesion (p<0.01) when plated on uncoated or collagen coated wells as compared of the respective cell type plated on BSA. Statistical significant was determine using an ANOVA where significance is defined as p<0.05. Sample size was n=4 and error bars are given as standard error of the mean.
