Transient transfection of primary cultured hepatocytes using CaPO4/DNA precipitation.
We present a detailed protocol for the transient transfection of non-proliferating primary cultured hepatocytes that is easily reproducible. Using a modification of the classical CaPO4/DNA precipitation method, this protocol is an inexpensive alternative to other methods that are often cumbersome, expensive, difficult to reproduce or harmful to primary hepatocytes. Because only 0.5 x 10(6) cell...
متن کاملMetabolism and Cytotoxic Mechanisms of Nitroglycerin in Isolated Rat Hepatocytes
It has been proposed that organic nitrates such as glyceryl trinitrate (GTN), used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, act by producing nitric oxide (NO). However, the biochemical pathway for NO formation from GTN is not well understood. In the present study, we showed that nitrate formation from GTN, by isolated rat hepatocytes, was inhibited about 50% when cellular glutathione w...
متن کاملLipid-mediated transfection of normal adult human hepatocytes in primary culture.
The aim of this work was to develop a procedure for the lipid-mediated transfection of DNA into normal adult human hepatocytes in culture. Cells were plated in a serum-free culture medium at various cell densities, on plastic or collagen-coated dishes, both in the absence and in the presence of epidermal growth factor (EGF). The cells were incubated for various periods of time with mixtures of ...

متن کامل3D Cultivation Techniques for Primary Human Hepatocytes
One of the main challenges in drug development is the prediction of in vivo toxicity based on in vitro data. The standard cultivation system for primary human hepatocytes is based on monolayer cultures, even if it is known that these conditions result in a loss of hepatocyte morphology and of liver-specific functions, such as drug-metabolizing enzymes and transporters. As it has been demonstrat...
