Effect of III1-C on cell spreading. Panel A. RASMCs were plated onto either uncoated dishes (C and 11C panels) or dishes coated with 20 μg/ml fibronectin (FN, FN+C and FN+11C panels) in the presence of either no recombinant protein in the media (FN panel), or 25 μM III1-C (FN+C and C panels), or 25 μM III 11-C in the media (FN+11C and 11C panels). After 30 min at 37°C the cells were fixed, stained with coomassie blue and photographed under a light microscope. Bar equals 100 μm. Panel B. Quantitation of cell spreading over time in the culture conditions described for Panel A. Each data point is the average of four samples; similar results were obtained from four independent experiments.
