Neuroscience
CNS research increasingly depends on the neurovascular unit, not neurons in isolation. Cell Biologics supplies brain microvascular endothelial cells alongside brain-derived vascular smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts, across mouse and rat, for neurovascular and blood-brain barrier co-culture models.
These populations pair directly with our Blood-Brain Barrier Studies hub for full BBB permeability assays. We do not currently carry primary neurons or astrocytes — contact us if your study needs a cell type outside this list.

Neuroscience — frequently asked questions
Do you supply primary neurons or astrocytes?
Not in the current catalogue. Our neuroscience-relevant offering is focused on the neurovascular unit — brain microvascular endothelial cells, brain vascular smooth muscle cells, and brain vascular fibroblasts. Contact us if you need a neuronal or glial population sourced.
How do these products differ from the Blood-Brain Barrier Studies hub?
They're the same underlying cell populations. This hub frames them for general CNS vascular research; the BBB hub frames the identical products specifically for permeability and transport co-culture assays.
