Inhibition of kidney tubule induction by charged polymers
Cell Differentiation
|December 1, 1978
Abstract:
Charged polymers, known to alter cell surface characteristics, reversibly inhibit the intercellular communication required in kidney tubule induction. This effect seems to be a function of their charge density. It is suggested that this effect is due to the formation of a molecular barrier between the interacting cell surfaces.
