Simplified isolation and spheroidal aggregate culture of rat hepatocytes.
AIM:To explore a simplified method for isolation of hepatocytes and establish a method of primary hepatocyte culture with more aggregates and longer persisence.METHODS: Wistar rat hepatocytes were isolated by a single extracorporeal two-step perfusion method, and the cells were seeded on poly-HEMA coated flasks and cultured with hormonally defined medium and gentle shaking at regular intervals....
متن کاملSpheroidal aggregate culture of rat liver cells: histotypic reorganization, biomatrix deposition, and maintenance of functional activities
Liver cells isolated from newborn rats and seeded on a non-adherent plastic substratum were found to spontaneously re-aggregate and to form, within a few days, spheroidal aggregates that eventually reached a plateaued diameter of 150-175 micron. Analyses on frozen sections from these spheroids by immunofluorescence microscopy using antibodies to various cytoskeletal elements and extracellular m...
متن کاملProgress in human hepatocytes: isolation, culture & cryopreservation.
The quality of the hepatocytes used for clinical cell transplantation is very important, and depends to a large extent on the nature of the tissue used for isolation. The collagenase perfusion technique to isolate hepatocytes from animal livers has been further developed for isolation of human hepatocytes. As the donor organ pool is a scarce resource, marginal livers unsuitable for transplantat...
متن کاملEnhanced hepatic differentiation of rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells in spheroidal aggregate culture on a decellularized liver scaffold
In the present study, we aimed to determine whether the combination of aggregate culture and decellularized liver scaffolds (DLSs) promoted the hepatic differentiation of murine bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) into high yields of mature hepatocytes in vitro. Four culturing methods for differentiation [single cell (2D), spheroids (3D), 2D + DLS and 3D + DLS] were studied. To...
متن کاملCharacterization of nitric oxide production following isolation of rat hepatocytes.
Freshly isolated suspensions of rat parenchymal liver cells (hepatocytes) produce large amounts of nitrite following isolation. Nitrite production was inhibited by the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) inhibitor aminoguanidine, as well as the transcription inhibitor actinomycin D. Increases in iNOS mRNA, protein, and activity levels correlated with the formation of nitrite. iNOS mRNA was f...
