Yes, all of our cells be provided as either frozen vials or cultured living cells. Frozen cells can be shipped next day. Please allow 1-2 weeks for the culture and shipping of live cells.

Cultured cells are provided with a small amount of conditioned media. We also keep a stock of the customer's chosen cells cultured in-house for a short period following shipping to allow for any issues around shipping or culturing on receipt by the customer.

Stemnovate's Human Primary Dermal Fibroblasts have many applications, for example:

• In the assay of cell-cell interaction, adhesion, PCR, laminin, and fibronectin production.
• Studying fibroblasts growth factor response.
• In immunofluorescent flow cytometry.
• Generating cell derivatives for desired research applications.
• Ideal for 2D and 3D cultures, microfluidic devices, co-cultures, tissue engineering, and skin models

Human Dermal Fibroblasts (HDFs) have been responsible for producing the extracellular matrix forming the connective tissue of the skin and play a crucial role during wound healing.

For instance, they play an important role in the progression of inflammation by secreting various factors that define the tissue microenvironment and modulate immune cell functions.

HDFs provide an excellent model system to study many aspects of cell physiology. For instance, they are remarkable for their utilization in dozens of research publications related to skin biology and reprogramming/induced pluripotency studies.

Dr. Shinya Yamanaka was awarded the Nobel Prize in 2012 (Takanashi, 2007; 2009) for using Human Dermal Fibroblasts in order to create induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) by using Oct3/4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-Myc.

Stemnovate IPSC lines are capable of differentiating into any organ cells. For instance, functional liver cells (Hepatocytes), heart cells (Cardiomyocytes showing key cardiac markers and beating behaviour), and sensory neurons (showing neuronal marker expression and action potential generation on microelectrode arrays).

The non-integrating method Stemnovate uses results in stable IPS line generation with high efficiency and reproducibility compared to other viral reprogramming methods.

The ability to expand pluripotent cells in vitro and subject them to direct differentiation to produce specific cell types is crucial to developing cell-based therapies to replace or restore tissue.
