Long Description:
Gastric fibroblasts (GF), which are located in the stomach, are mesenchymal cells derived from the embryonic mesoderm. Fibroblasts secrete a non-rigid extracellular matrix that is both rich in type I and/or type III collagen. They are responsible for much of the synthesis of extracellular matrix in connective tissues and play a central role in wound healing. Studies in vitro and in vivo show that GF can regulate epithelial regeneration by influencing epithelial cell proliferation and differentiation. In addition to their role in wound healing, human GF (HGF) have been shown to be key contributors in the development and progression of gastric carcinoma. HGF are a useful model for examining the underlying mechanisms that cause gastric carcinoma and may provide novel insights for developing new cancer drug therapies. HGF from ScienCell Research Laboratories are isolated from human stomach tissue. HGF are cryopreserved at passage one and delivered frozen. Each vial contains >5 x 10^5 cells in 1 ml volume. HGF are characterized by immunofluorescence with antibody specific to fibronectin. HGF are negative for HIV-1, HBV, HCV, mycoplasma, bacteria, yeast and fungi. HGF are guaranteed to further expand for 15 population doublings under the conditions provided by ScienCell ResearchLaboratories. Recommended Medium - It is recommended to use Fibroblast Medium (FM, Cat. #2301) for culturing HGF in vitro .
