The existing in vitro culture systems often use undefined and animal-derived components for the culture of pluripotent stem cells. Artificial bioengineered peptides have the potential to become ...

This distinctive structure enables MFG-E8 to function as a molecular bridge, mediating cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, promoting cell adhesion, remodelling the extracellular matrix (ECM ...

Braz J Med Biol Res, May 2001, Volume 34 (5) 621-626 A fucan from the brown seaweed Spatoglossum schröederi inhibits Chinese hamster ovary cell adhesion to several extracellular matrix proteins H.A.O.

Most cells in the body send out little messengers called extracellular vesicles that carry proteins, lipids, and other bioactive molecules to other cells, playing an important role in ...

In this Teach Me In 10, we explore the exciting field of Extracellular Vesicle (EV) research with Laura Skerlos, Senior Scientist in Cell Assay Development at Sartorius. Laura will walk us through ...

After decades of failed attempts, scientists have finally succeeded in coaxing animal cells into photosynthesizing. So far, the researchers have only managed to achieve the feat in cultured cells ...

Figure 1 Photomicrograph of native tissue and decellularized matrix of human glans. A and C correspond to the native tissue; B and D to the decellularized matrix glans. A and B (100X) H&E and C and D ...

The extracellular matrix (ECM) has been delegated a secondary role in understanding biological dynamics due to the preponderance of evidence for cells as the prime movers. Studies from the past few ...

The numerous cells that make up mammalian tissues are surrounded by an intricate network of proteins known as the extracellular matrix (ECM). Together, these proteins provide cells with a structural ...

Investigators created a novel culture method that uses an engineered extracellular matrix for human brain organoids — without the presence of animal components – and enhanced the neurogenesis ...

The CDMO is responding with the launch of low-cost, licence-free cell banks to support cultivated meat research. First up: cells from cow, pig and lamb The cell banks initially offer cells isolated ...
