Human Pulmonary Artery Smooth Muscle Cells (HPASMC), when grown in LIVas SMC Medium, provide an ideal culture model for the study of angiogenesis, atherosclerosis, diabetes or vascular/pulmonary biology.Cell Features:HSMC are cryopreserved as secondary cells, e.g. cells are isolated from the stated tissue and expanded in culture vessels twice before cryopreservation.HAoSMC are isolated from human aorta (ascending and/or descending).HPASMC are isolated from human pulmonary artery.HCASMC are isolated from human coronary arteries.HLMSC are isolated from the lobes of the lungs.HBTSMC are isolated from the trachea and primary bronchi.HSMC can be grown without phenol red or antimicrobials when cultured in VascuLife SMC Medium.HSMC are extensively tested to meet quality standards and exhibit optimal performance.Gentaur guarantees performance and quality.

Rat Pulmonary Vein Smooth Muscle Cells from Gentaur are isolated from tissue of Sprague-Dawley Rats. Rat Pulmonary Vein Smooth Muscle Cells are grown in T75 tissue culture flasks pre-coated with gelatin-based coating solution for 0.5 hour and incubated in Gentaur's Cell Culture Medium for 3-7 days. Cultures are then expanded. Prior to shipping, cells are detached from flasks and immediately cryo-preserved in vials. Each vial contains at least 1x10^6 cells per ml and is delivered frozen.Cells are negative for bacteria, yeast, fungi, and mycoplasma and are characterized by immunofluorescent staining with antibodies to α-smooth muscle actin. Cells can be expanded on a multiwell culture plate ready for experiments under the cell culture conditions specified by Gentaur.Repeated freezing and thawing of cells is not recommended.Standard biochemical procedures performed with smooth muscle cell cultures include the assays of cell to cell interaction, PCR, Western blotting, immunoprecipitation, immunofluorescent staining, immunofluorescent flow cytometry or generating cell derivatives for desired research applications.
