Caractéristiques et avantages

Serum-Free media optimized to expand and culture LX-2 human hepatic stellate cells.

Description de la cible

LX-2 Human Hepatic Stellate Serum-Free Media (SCM064SFM) is a ready to use, serum-free culture medium specifically designed for the growth and proliferation of LX-2 human hepatic stellate cells (SCC064, SCC064SF).

Hepatic stellate cells are a major cell type responsible for liver fibrosis following their activation into fibrogenic myofibroblast-like cells in diseases such as chronic alcoholism, hepatitis B and C, fatty liver disease, obesity, and diabetes. LX-2 cells, an immortalized human hepatic stellate cells, retain key features of primary hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) and have been extensively utilized in the study of liver fibrosis.

SCM064SFM eliminates the reliance on FBS, providing a consistent and controlled environment for cell culture. This ensures reproducibility in experimental results and reduces variability often associated with serum-based media. The media is optimized to support the growth and proliferation of LX-2 cells, enabling researchers to conduct experiments with similar cell yields and viability compared with cells grown on FBS supplemented media. By eliminating the need for FBS, SCM064SFM significantly reduces the demand for animal-derived products, contributing to ethical research practices and animal welfare.
