Platelet Rich in Growth Factors (PRGF): A Suitable Replacement for Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) in Mesenchymal Stem Cell Culture
Background: Due to high differentiation potential and self-renewality, Mesenchymal Stem Cells are now widely considered by researchers in several diseases. FBS is used as a supplement in culture media for proliferation, differentiation, and other culture processes of MSCs, which is associated with transmission risk of a variety of infections as well as immune responses. PRGF derived from platel...
متن کاملReplacement of fetal calf serum by human serum as supplementation for human fibroblast culture
Introduction: Fetal calf serum (FCS) is commonly used as a supplement in the culture medium for fibroblast cells. This supplementation is far from ideal as sample quality varies from batch to batch and the composition of FCS is not completely known. In addition, FCS may be contaminated with viruses and/or prions and may also cause adverse immunologic responses in humans. Due to these facts, a w...
متن کاملhuman autologous serum as a substitute for fetal bovine serum in human schwann cell culture.
nowadays, cell -based and tissue engineered products have opened new horizons in treatment of incurable nervous system disorders. the number of studies on the role of schwann cells (sc) in treating nervous disorders is higher than other cell types. different protocols have been suggested for isolation and expansion of sc which most of them have used multiple growth factors, mitogens and fetal b...
متن کاملUse of chicken serum as a good replacement for the fetal calf serum in cultivation of promastigotes of Leishmania major
Genus Leishmania is a protozoan parasite that causes different severe diseases. Fetal Calf Serum (FCS) is the major part of the Leishmania culture media, for mass cultivation and the most expensive ingredient in these media. In the present work, the efficacy of chicken serum was evaluated in Leishmania culture media. The results indicated that, the (10%) chicken serum enriched culture medium su...
متن کاملFetal calf serum contains activities that induce fetal hemoglobin in adult erythroid cell cultures.
Cultures of peripheral blood or bone marrow erythroid progenitors display stimulated production of fetal hemoglobin. We investigated whether this stimulation is due to factors contained in the sera of the culture medium. Comparisons of gamma/gamma + beta biosynthetic ratios in erythroid colonies grown in fetal calf serum (FCS) or in charcoal treated FCS (C-FCS) showed that FCS-grown cells had s...
