|
ECM ground substances include: |
-GAGs -proteoglycans and proteoglycan aggregates -multi adhesive glycoproteins |
|
what is ECM ground substance |
space between cells and fibers clear, high water content lost with staining so looks empty |
|
proteoglycans and proteoglycan aggregates: -are __ -highly __ charge, so attracts __ |
sulfated GAGs that attach to them -highly negative charge, attracts water |
|
LM appearance for GAGs and proteos: PAS for them |
