RT-PCR analysis of MMP-2, MT1-MMP, and TIMP-2 mRNAs in cultured HSCs. HSCs were cultured overnight on polystyrene (I), on type I collagen coated surface (II), on type I collagen gel (III), and on Matrigel (IV), respectively, and then the levels of MMP-2, MT1-MMP, and TIMP-2 mRNA were analysed by RT-PCR. The beta-actin mRNA level was used as internal standard.
