Human chondrocytes
Lieferant: PROMOCELL
Primary human chondrocytes (HCH) are isolated from normal human articular cartilage from the knee and hip joints. HCH are routinely tested for the capacity to differentiate in 3D spheroids.
The articular cartilage covers the joints between bones and contains no blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, or nerve fibers. It is composed of only one specialised cell type, the chondrocytes, which produce and maintain the extracellular matrix of cartilage, i.e. collagen (mostly type II) and proteoglycans (primarily aggrecan).
Applications include: Osteoarthritis research, joint research, physiology studies, chondrocyte differentiation experiments, hyaline cartilage investigations.
Lieferumfang: Human Chondrocytes can be ordered as cryopreserved or proliferating cells. Cell pellets stored in RNAlater® are also available.
