ABSTRACT
F9 mouse teratocarcinoma cells have a high capacity to adhere to laminin and we identified alpha6/beta1 integrin as the principal laminin-binding protein present in these cells. F9 cells differentiated into parietal endoderm when monolayer cultures were treated with retinoic acid and dibutyryl cyclic AMP. In this process a decreased adherence to laminin was observed due to a lower expression of alpha6/beta1 integrin on the cell surface
