Establishment of fibroblast cultures.
نویسنده
چکیده
Fibroblasts are fairly easily isolated from a variety of tissues, in this case skin. The cells are fast growing and can be rapidly expanded from small samples. They are suitable for behavioral, functional, biochemical, and genomic studies. Skin fibroblast cultures are started from explants in which the epidermis is enzymatically removed to prevent contamination of the fibroblasts with epidermal cells. Alternatively, the dermis can be enzymatically dissociated to provide a suspension of fibroblasts.

Establishment of a Primary Cell Culture of Human Fibroblast in Iran
Background: Human fibroblasts are the part of the dermis that secrete extracellular matrix for the purpose of tissue repair. Culturing fibroblasts, which leads to formation of a monolayer of these cells, is used for treating various conditions including thermal burns and other skin defects such as diabetic and varicose vein leg ulcers. Therefore, we aimed at developing a fibroblast bank to acco...
متن کاملSupportive Effects of Human Embryonic Fibroblast Cell Lines on Growth and Proliferation of EBV-Transformed Lymphoblastoid Cells
Human diploid fibroblast cells produce a spectrum of necessary growth factors and extracellular matrix (ECM) components essential for growth and proliferation of a variety of other cell types. In this study, the effect of five human embryonic fibroblast cell lines, isolated from liver, lung, skin and foreskin tissues, was investigated. A coculture system analyse was employed to cloning efficien...

Establishment of Guinea pig fetal fibroblast cells and their biological evaluation before and after cryopreservation were the main purposes of this study. After determination of the proper age of pregnancy by ultrasonography, 30 days old fetuses of Guinea pigs were recovered. Their skins were cut into small pieces (1 mm(2)) and were cultured. When reaching 80-90% confluence, the cells were pass...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to characterize cell cultures and xenografts derived from patients with ovarian cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Ninety specimens from 67 patients were plated in RPMI 1640 or inoculated in nude mice. Growth characteristics of cell cultures and xenografts were determined. Expression of receptors for estrogen, progesterone, androgen, epithelial growth factor, fi...
متن کاملThe Role of Human Adult Peripheral and Umbilical Cord Blood Platelet-Rich Plasma on Proliferation and Migration of Human Skin Fibroblasts
BACKGROUND Wound healing is a complex and dynamic process following damage in tissue structures. Due to extensive skin damage caused by burn injuries, this study determined the role of human adult peripheral and umbilical cord blood platelet-rich plasma on proliferation and migration in human skin fibroblasts. METHODS Platelet-rich plasma (5, 10, 15, 20 and 50% PRP) from human umbilica...
