Abstract | Stem cells are regulated by the microenvironment or niche they reside in, which consists of growth factors, niche cells and the extracellular matrix. The ECM acts as both a structural component and as a reservoir for growth factors that are released upon degradation. During regeneration, stem cells in the planarian are activated to migrate and proliferate; however, the role of the ECM in stem cell regulation is still unclear. Analysis of an EST library of planarian transcripts revealed nine fibrillar-related collagen chains (DjCol1-9). Sequence and structural analysis ... |
