Quantifying fluid shear stress in a rocking culture dish.
Fluid shear stress (FSS) is an important stimulus for cell functions. Compared with the well established parallel-plate and cone-and-plate systems, a rocking "see-saw" system offers some advantages such as easy operation, low cost, and high throughput. However, the FSS spatiotemporal pattern in the system has not been quantified. In the present study, we developed a lubrication-based model to a...
متن کاملGeneration of fertile sperm in a culture dish: clinical implications.
S permatogenesis is a tightly regulated process of development for the generation of mature spermatozoa. Mammalian spermatogenesis occurs in the convoluted seminiferous tubules of the testes, where spermatogenic stem cells (SSCs) reside on sustentacular Sertoli cells of somatic origin, forming a germinal epithelial structure. Spermato genesis is accomplished in a complicated, timely controlled ...
متن کاملA Brain in a Dish.
Ohio State University researchers have made a leap forward in disease research by creating an eraser sized human "brain" in a petri dish1. Although lacking a circulatory system their brain model includes spinal cord, cortex, midbrain, brain stem, and even the beginnings of an eye- aiding in the effectiveness of research on complex neurological disease. To create their new brain model, the resea...
متن کاملIntestinal Tumor in a Dish
Predicting the response of colorectal cancer (CRC) tumors to novel chemotherapeutic agents is significantly complicated by their underlying genetic and epigenetic diversity. Large-scale clinical trials involving thousands of patients are often necessary in order to accurately determine efficacy during drug development. Recent advances in genetic sequencing has allowed us to improve the predicti...
متن کاملA functional motor unit in the culture dish: co-culture of spinal cord explants and muscle cells.
Human primary muscle cells cultured aneurally in monolayer rarely contract spontaneously because, in the absence of a nerve component, cell differentiation is limited and motor neuron stimulation is missing. These limitations hamper the in vitro study of many neuromuscular diseases in cultured muscle cells. Importantly, the experimental constraints of monolayered, cultured muscle cells can be o...
