Effects of various types of extracellular matrices on adhesion, proliferation, differentiation, and c-fos protein expression of porcine thyroid follicle cells.

abstract：:Embryonic stem (ES) cells are a pluripotent cell line derived from the inner cell mass of the mouse blastocyst. The mRNA levels of several growth-related genes were examined in ES cells by Northern blot analysis under several different growth conditions.
