Cell culture process includes seeding a suitable culture medium with enterocytes and then, after a delay, seeding the medium containing the enterocytes that have begun to proliferate, with goblet cells.
摘要:
A method for providing a urinary tract tissue graft composition includes providing a tissue culture frame and a segment of small intestinal submucosa and positioning the segment of small intestinal submucosa in the tissue culture frame such that the segment of small intestinal submucosa is suspended and held in a taut position by the tissue culture frame. Smooth muscle and urothelial cells are isolated from a tissue specimen of a subject and cultured, and then seeded upon the segment of small intestinal submucosa, thereby forming a urinary tract tissue graft. A tissue culture frame in which such a urinary tract tissue graft may be formed is also disclosed.

摘要:
Various embodiments of the invention provide methods of treating diabetes and other glucose regulation disorders. In one embodiment, the method comprises removing L-cells from a donor, obtaining stem cells from a patient, and culturing the L-cells in the presence of the stem cells under conditions such that the stem cells differentiate into stem cell-derived L-cells (SCDLC). An amount of the SCDLC is introduced into the patient sufficient to cause a lowering of the patient's blood glucose level after ingestion of food. In another embodiment, the method comprises removing K-cells from a donor, obtaining stem cells from a patient, and culturing the K-cells in the presence of the stem cells under conditions such that the stem cells differentiate into stem cell-derived K-cells (SCDKC). An amount of the SCDKC is introduced into the patient sufficient to cause a lowering of the patient's blood glucose level after ingestion of food.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an in vitro method of culturing a segmented filamentous bacterium strain, comprising co-culturing said segmented filamentous bacterium strain with a eukaryotic host cell, wherein the culture is performed at an O2 level inferior to 5% in a rich tissue culture liquid medium containing bacterial medium components including iron. The present invention also relates to methods for genetically modifying a segmented filamentous bacterium strain comprising a step a culturing the strain in vitro.
摘要:
A cell culture media composition for support growth of human SI stem cells and epithelium without a feeder layer is presented. The media may also include growth factors including ENR and Y-27632 that support the survival of stem cell spheroid structures. The cell culture media compositions permit rapid growth of human small intestinal (SI) epithelium and stem cells, which leads to specific spheroid cell and enteroid morphology when grown in 3-D culture system.
