Figure Lengend Snippet: HepG2 cells were cultured on different tissue-specific ECM coatings for 14 days before protein lysates were prepared. Proteins were electrophoresed and transferred to a membrane, which was probed with antibodies to HAS, albumin and β-actin (loading control). Higher expression of liver-specific proteins are visible when cells are cultured on ECM versus control (no ECM coating) plates.
