Fig 6. Mechanism of EPC attachment to truncated tropoelastin constructs.

Fig 6

(A) and (B) EPCs attached to 40 μg/ml N25 and N18 respectively, in the presence of α-lactose, β-lactose, heparan sulfate or EDTA. (C) and (D) Attachment of EPCs to 40 μg/ml N25 and N18, respectively, in the presence of Ca2+, Mg2+, or Mn2+. (E) and (F), Inhibition of EPC spreading on 40 μg/ml N25 and N18 respectively, using antibody that inhibits binding to integrin αvβ3. Error bars represent S.E.M. of triplicate measurements.
