Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cell adhesion onto a cell culture plate is a necessary for a normal cell growth in every monolayer adherent cells. Once adherent cells were suspended, it is known that many extracellular matrix components were released from cells to create an anchor for the cell culture plate. In this study, I discovered a novel event of an exclusive reservation for cell adherent area, which we named “space-occupying process” in cell adhesion processes. Moreover, I tried to identify the factor in this phenomenon.
