Product Advantages


  • Effectively dissociate human mammary tissue and prostate epithelial cells


Overview

Enzymatically dissociate human mammary cells with 10X Collagenase/Hyaluronidase in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (DMEM). This protease/polysaccharidase combination digests native collagen fibrils and hydrolizes hyaluronic acids in connective tissues for effective tissue dissociation. Collagenase/Hyluronidase can also been used for enzymatic dissociation of prostate epithelial cells.

Silica bioreplication preserves three-dimensional spheroid structures of human pluripotent stem cells and HepG2 cells. Lou Y-R et al. Scientific reports 2015 SEP

Abstract

Three-dimensional (3D) cell cultures produce more in vivo-like multicellular structures such as spheroids that cannot be obtained in two-dimensional (2D) cell cultures. Thus, they are increasingly employed as models for cancer and drug research, as well as tissue engineering. It has proven challenging to stabilize spheroid architectures for detailed morphological examination. Here we overcome this issue using a silica bioreplication (SBR) process employed on spheroids formed from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) and hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells cultured in the nanofibrillar cellulose (NFC) hydrogel. The cells in the spheroids are more round and tightly interacting with each other than those in 2D cultures, and they develop microvilli-like structures on the cell membranes as seen in 2D cultures. Furthermore, SBR preserves extracellular matrix-like materials and cellular proteins. These findings provide the first evidence of intact hPSC spheroid architectures and similar fine structures to 2D-cultured cells, providing a pathway to enable our understanding of morphogenesis in 3D cultures.
