New in vitro cellular model for human Lipodystrophy
Lipodystrophies are disorders characterized by complete or selective loss of adipose tissue from various regions of the body. They might lead to severe metabolic disorders. The development of reliable
Anti cellulite compound evaluation with in vitro adipocyte-assays
Mechanisms leading to cellulite formation is complex. It involves lipid regulatory pathways and proinflammatory cross-talk that represent promising molecular targets in cosmetology. This post introduces
Angiogenin favours liver cancer (HCC) growth & expansion
A publication earlier this year by Bárcena et al. shows that angiogenin plays a crucial role in the onset and development of liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma or HCC).
Angiogenin was the first
Mimic human pulmonary function in vitro
If you're studying human pulmonary function and pathophysiology, you need access to validated, highly characterised, human airway cellular models. A large collection of these cells is available
Cell-based assays with hPBMCs for cell therapy and drug discovery
Human Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (hPBMCs) are essential for designing cellular models to be used in cell therapy and drug discovery research programs [1-7, 12]. Being able to access reliable and
3 new types of Gastrointestinal (GI) Epithelial primary cells
Gastrointestinal (GI) primary cells represent a powerful approach for the in vitro study of the physiopathology of this unique tissue. Researchers have now identified intimate interactions between GI
Neurons, Astrocytes, Microglia: High Quality primary cells source
In the field of neurosciences, increasing research is being undertaken on neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases, as well as on nerve injury and regeneration. One of the
Pre-screened endothelial cells validated for signalling biomarkers
Working with primary cells can be tricky at times. It's always best to know in advance what essential markers your cell model does express not to waste time and efforts in working with an inappropriate
Smooth Muscle Cells: Ready-to-Use, QC tested Specialized Media
Producing specialized media for specific primary cell types may be best outsourced to specialized manufacturers in order to obtain optimal results for this type of cell culture, more tricky than standard
Recent developments in 3D cell culture hydrogel
Due to their ability to simulate the characteristics of most soft tissues and natural scaffolds, hydrogels are now an attractive material for developing synthetic Extracellular Matrix (ECM) analogs.
Recently,
Primary cells: ready-to-use, QC tested media
In a previous post, I introduced a complete panel of ready-to-use specialized media for smooth muscle primary cells culture. Produced by Cell Applications, a GMP certified manufacturer of primary cells
