ABSTRACT:
A method of growing epithelial cells by contacting the cells with the extracellular matrix deposited or secreted by human MCF-10A mammary epithelial cells. The MCF-10A matrix stimulates cell attachment and hemidesmosome formation in epithelial cells contacted therewith. The invention also encompasses the isolated or purified MCF-10A matrix, compositions comprising the matrix, and shaped articles coated with the matrix.
