Exosomes as a trigger for signaling
Extracellular vesicles in general, or exosomes in particular, are becoming a hot topic for research, especially in cancer. They seem to have different roles in tumour progression or can be used as
Cellular models for studying the human urogenital system
The urogenital system is the organ system of the reproductive organs and the urinary system. These are grouped together because of their proximity to each other, their common embryological origin and the
Cellular models to study the cardiac System (part I)
In this post, I'd like to introduce human aortic, brachiocephalic, carotid artery and coronary artery cells isolated by Cell Applications Inc. In a future post, I'll be highlighting human internal
Cellular models to study the Cardiac System (part II)
In a previous post, I introduced several models to study the cardiac human system. This first post introduced human aortic, brachiocephalic, carotid artery and coronary artery cells isolated by Cell Applications
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
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
Cell Signalling - how is the Phospho Explorer antibody array used?
If your research interest is focused on the identification of cell signalling pathways and protein phosphorylation profiles, the comprehensive Phospho Explorer Array may be of great help to you, measuring
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
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
