Tumor extracellular matrix: lessons from the second-harmonic generation microscopy
2021-03-22
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Extracellular matrix (ECM) represents more than a mere intercellular cement. It is physiologically active in cell communication, adhesion and proliferation. Collagen is the most abundant protein, making up to 90% of ECM, and 30% of total protein weight in humans. Second-harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy represents an important tool to study collagen organization of ECM in freshly unfixed tissues and pa...
