Description
Product Description
iXCells Biotechnologies provides high quality Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVEC), which are isolated from human umbilical vein of mix donors, and cryopreserved at P2, with >0.5 million cells in each vial. HUVEC have “cobblestone” morphology and positive staining with vWF/Factor VIII and CD31. HUVEC are one of the mostly used cell types to study endothelial function in vitro, including angiogenesis [1], signaling pathway under normal and pathological condition such as oxidative stress, hypoxia [2] and inflammation etc. These HUVEC are negative for HIV-1, HBV, HCV, mycoplasma, bacteria, yeast and fungi and can further expand in Endothelial Cell Growth Medium (Cat# MD-0010) under the condition suggested by iXCells Biotechnologies.
