Human Ovarian Surface Epithelial Cells

The human ovary is covered with a single layer of flat to cuboidal surface epithelial cells (OSE). OSE are physiologically involved in follicular rupture and the subsequent repair of the follicle wall during reproductive age. OSE exhibit a gland formation in coculture with endometrial stromal cells in an estrogen-rich environment. The phenotypic plasticity of these cells shares a mesenchymal property when they are cultured on two layers of extracellular matrix and collagen gel. OSE are the source of epithelial ovarian carcinomas. Understanding the mechanisms that regulate OSE cell survival, apoptosis, and cell growth is of great clinical importance because an aberrant signaling of any of these pathways is likely to be involved in epithelial ovarian cancer.HOSEpiC from Gentaur Research Laboratories are isolated from human ovarian tissue. HOSEpiC are cryopreserved either at primary or passage one cultures and delivered frozen. Each vial contains 5×10^5 cells in 1 ml volume. HOSEpiC are characterized by immunofluorescent method with cytokeratine antibodies (CK-14, -18 and -19). HOSEpiC are negative for HIV-1, HBV, HCV, mycoplasma, bacteria, yeast and fungi. HOSEpiC are guaranteed to further expand for over 5 population doublings in the conditions provided by Gentaur Research Laboratories.

Human Esophageal Epithelial Cells

The human esophagus is lined by a non-keratinizing, moist stratified squamous epithelium whose apical cell membranes and intercellular junctional complexes combine to produce an effective permeability barrier against the influx of luminal content. In particular, the barrier created by these structures limits exposure of the surface cells' basolateral cell membranes and entire membrane of cells of the deeper layers to the wide swings in osmolality occurring regularly within the esophageal lumen. Histologically, the esophageal epithelium consists of two zones, the basal and differentiated zones. Cellular proliferation is limited to the basal zone, and cells are thought to migrate from this area towards the esophageal lumen. Migration is associated with the initiation of differentiation and the sequential expression of differentiation markers. The availability of human esophageal epithelial cell culture provides an excellent in vitro model in the study of the physiology of esophageal epithelium and the mechanisms of the esophageal carcinogenesis.HEEC from Gentaur Research Laboratories are isolated from the human esophagus. HEEC are cryopreserved on passage one culture and delivered frozen. Each vial contains 5×10^5 cells in 1 ml volume. HEEC are characterized by immunofluorescent method with antibodies to cytokeratine-8, -18 and -19. HEEC are negative for HIV-1, HBV, HCV, mycoplasma, bacteria, yeast and fungi. HEEC are guaranteed to further expand for 15 population doublings in the condition provided by Gentaur Research Laboratories.

Human Nasal Epithelial Cells

The cells are isolated from normal human adult tissues of the airways (nasal mucosa, trachea, bronchi, and distal respiratory tract), breast (mammary gland), kidney (whole kidney and renal cortex), and the placenta (amniotic membrane). Shortly after isolation, all Gentaur Human Epithelial Cells are cryopreserved at passage 2 (P2) . Each cryo vial contains more than 500,000 viable cells after thawing. Proliferating cell cultures are made from 500,000 cryopreserved cells that have been thawed and cultured for three days at Gentaur.
