Human Oral Keratinocytes

Oral keratinocytes act as the major barrier to physical, microbial, and chemical agents that may cause local cell injury. They are involved in the proinflammatory process through the production of cytokines either constitutively or after a variety of stimuli, implying that they may potentially participate in controlling oral infections through an inflammatory process involving different interleukins, such as IL-1ß and IL-18. Oral keratinocytes express a variety of differentiation markers, the expression of which is influenced by calcium-induced changes in the transcription of target genes. Oral keratinocytes share major structural and functional features with the well-characterized dermal keratinocyte and provide a good model to study basic keratinocyte biology as well as processes of immortalization and malignant transformation.HOK from Gentaur Research Laboratories are isolated from human oral mucosa. HOK are cryopreserved on passage one culture and delivered frozen. Each vial contains 5×10^5 cells in 1 ml volume. HOK are characterized by immunofluorescent method with antibodies to cytokeratine-8, -18 and -19. HOK are negative for HIV-1, HBV, HCV, mycoplasma, bacteria, yeast and fungi. HOK are guaranteed to further expand for 15 population doublings in the condition provided by Gentaur Research Laboratories.

Human Iris Pigment Epithelial Cells

The iris is a pigmented disk with a variable aperture which forms the pupil of the eye. It is covered by squamous epithelium on anterior surface and 2 layers of pigmented epithelium on posterior. The iris pigment epithelial cells (IPE) share functional properties with retinal pigment epithelial cells (RPE) such as phagocytosis, degradation of rod outer segments and synthesis of trophic factors. In recent years, IPE have been transplanted into the subretinal space of eye to treat RPE defects. The grafted IPE were seen to survive for months. There was a remodeling of cellular layers in the subretinal space over time where grafted IPE joined the native RPE. The cellular response that developed exhibited macrophages and were similar to that observed following RPE transplantation. In vitro study also show that IPE expressing CD86, directly suppresses T cell activation via binding to cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4.HIPEpiC from Gentaur Research Laboratories are isolated from the human iris. HIPEpiC are cryopreserved at passage one and delivered frozen. Each vial contains 5×10^5 cells in 1 ml volume. HIPEpiC are characterized by immunofluorescent method with antibodies to cytokeratin-18, vimentin and fibronectin. HIPEpiC are negative for HIV-1, HBV, HCV, mycoplasma, bacteria, yeast and fungi. HIPEpiC are guaranteed to further expand for two passages (around 10 population doublings) in the conditions provided by Gentaur Research Laboratories.

Human Small Airway Epithelial Cells

The small airways are located at the interface between alveoli and conducting airways. Airway epithelial cells forming a continuous lining to the airways play a unique role as a protective physical and functional barrier to external deleterious agents. These cells function in the regulation of immune responses by contributing to host defense through chemokine production, adhesion molecule expression, and possibly antigen presentation via HLA-DR expression. They also produce liquids contributing to pulmonary fluid balance. Many airway diseases, such as asthma, bronchiolitis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and cystic fibrosis, involve damage to the airway surface epithelium. The human small airway epithelial cell culture may identify new therapeutic options in preventing amplified airway ailment and remodeling.HSAEpiC from Gentaur Research Laboratories are isolated from human lung tissue. HSAEpiC are cryopreserved at either primary culture or passage one culture and delivered frozen. Each vial contains 5×10^5 cells in 1 ml volume. HSAEpiC are characterized by immunofluorescent method with antibodies CK-18, -19, and vimentin. HSAEpiC are negative for HIV-1, HBV, HCV, mycoplasma, bacteria, yeast and fungi. HSAEpiC are guaranteed to further expand for 15 population doublings at the conditions provided by Gentaur Research Laboratories.
