A Micropatterned Culture with Primary Hepatocytes and Kupffer Macrophages for Studying Inflammation-Drug Interactions

3 Sept 2014

Using TVX as a prototype compound, this poster evaluates the ability of the HepatoPac- Kupffer cell co-culture model to detect inflammation- mediated toxicities.

Human HepatoPac™ Kits

Hepregen Corporation

Human HepatoPac™ kits are an ideal way to conduct all your DMPK, Predictive Toxicology & Mechanistic Toxicology applications. Begin dosing as early as 3 days after receiving the kit! Use our Human HepatoPac™ Triple Donor plates for the ultimate in convenience. HepatoPac™ co-cultures derived from 3 independent and highly characterized donors are provided on a single plate (8-wells from each donor).HepatoPac™ kits can be used for any assay that can be run using sandwich, monoculture plates or suspension cultures. Due to the extended in vitro functionality of HepatoPac™ co-cultures, Hepregen kits enable studies such as low turnover clearance or chronic toxicity studies that could not otherwise be performed.Human HepatoPac™ Kits Features: HT-ready format; 24- and 96-well plates Proprietary micropatterened co-culture Superior data for both slowly and rapidly metabolized drugs Culture longevity of up to 4 weeks Kits contain: Human HepatoPac™ Co-Cultures Maintenance Media Application-specific Media and additives Instructions for culture maintenance and application-specific protocols On-site customer training included

Cell / Tissue CultureCell culture or tissue culture is used to study the biology of cells or tissues and to isolate cellular products in an environment which can be manipulated and well defined. Accurately control your culture environment with bioreactors or culture incubators, bind your cells to a surface or together with an extracellular matrix. Distinguish cell types with differential media or proliferate cells with certain characteristics using selective media. Enrich your media with supplements such as growth factors, sera and vitamins. Find the best cell and tissue culture products, kits and equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Cell-Based AssaysCell-based assays are used to monitor the presence, quantity and activities of a desired cellular analyte including drug molecules or biomarkers. This can reveal information on cell health (apoptosis, cytotoxicity, viability and proliferation assays), cell metabolism, cell migration and cell signaling mechanisms.
