A synthetic cell density signal can drive proliferation in chick embryonic tendon cells and tendon cells from a full size rooster can produce high levels of procollagen in cell culture
Cell density signaling drives tendon morphogenesis by regulating both procollagen production and cell proliferation. The signal is composed of a small, highly conserved protein (SNZR P) tightly bound to a tissue-specific, unique lipid (SNZR L). This allows the complex (SNZR PL) to bind to the membra...
