چکیده
A clonal strain of rat glial tumor cells was shown to produce the acid mucopolysaccharides, hyaluronic acid, chondroitin 4-SO(4), and heparan sulfate in tissue culture. The mucopolysaccharides were isolated both from the growth medium and the cells.

P10: Isolation and Culture of Primary Microglial Cells from Glioblastoma Patients
Glioblastoma multiform (GBM) is the most common and malignant form of glial tumors. GBM microenvironment contains various cell types showing characteristics of activated or dimorphic macrophages/microglia. Some of these cells provide significant help for tumor growth, while others are able to inhibit tumor progression. Microglia play a major role in brain function by monitoring tissue for patho...
متن کاملHeritability and Control of Differentiated Function in Cultured Cells
An established tissue culture cell line which retains a differentiated function in vitro is described. The cell line is of connective tissue origin, and its characteristic property is the synthesis and secretion of acid mucopolysaccharides, mainly hyaluronic acid. This differentiated cell function, the activity of which depends on continuous gene action, was found to be possessed by each of ele...

Introduction: Sialic acid plays pivotal roles in various critical physiological events at molecular and cellular levels and also pathological processes. Changes in sialic acid concentration are observed in many pathological processes; for example, there are some available data on the evaluated level of sialic acid and neurodegenerative prevalence. It can be proposed that sialic acid can play a ...
متن کاملMucopolysaccharides Produced in Tissue Culture
1. A method of mass tissue culture has been devised by which, in a relatively short period of time, samples large enough for chemical isolation of mucopolysaccharides can be obtained. 2. Chemical isolation of acid mucopolysaccharides from mass cultures of human fetal skin, human fetal bone, bovine fetal skin, and rat subcutaneous tissue has been carried out. It has been found that the fibroblas...
متن کاملThe Effect of Rosmarinic Acid in Neural Differentiation of Wartons Jelly-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Two Dimensional and Three Dimensional Cultures using Chitosan-based Hydrogel
Numerous studies have shown the positive effects of rosmarinic acid on the nervous system. Rosmarinic acid as a herbal compound with anti-inflammatory effects can prevent the destructive effect of inflammation on the nervous system. Furthermore, various studies have emphasized the advantages of three dimensional (3D) culture over the two dimensional (2D) culture of cells. In this study, thermos...
