Immortalized GFP-Expressing Human Primary Diabetic Cardiac Fibroblasts

Catalog No. HD2-6049IM.GFP

Suggested Medium

M2267 Complete Fibroblast Medium w/ Kit – 500 ml

Product Description

Immortalized GFP-Expressing Human Primary Diabetic Cardiac Fibroblasts from Cell Biologics are isolated from heart tissues of human donors that have been diagnosed with diabetes type II disease. Cells are grown in gelatin pre-coated tissue culture flask with Cell Biologics’ Complete Growth Medium. Cells at passage 2-3 are harvested from flasks and cryo-preserved in vials. Each vial contains 0.5x10⁶ cells per ml and is delivered frozen. Immortalized GFP-Expressing Human Primary Diabetic Cardiac Fibroblasts are characterized by their spindle morphology and immunofluorescent staining with anti-fibroblast-specific protein 1 or anti-Vimentin antibody. These cells are negative for mycoplasma, bacteria, yeast, fungi, HIV-1, hepatitis B and hepatitis C and can be expanded for more than 10 passages at a split ratio of 1:2 under the cell culture conditions specified by Cell Biologics. Repeated freezing and thawing of cells are not recommended.

Immortalized cells from Cell Biologics are derived from Primary Diabetic cells expressing GFP. These Primary Diabetic cells are immortalized by over-expression of the large T-antigen of the simian virus (SV40) or human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT).

Storage

Cryopreserved cells are shipped with dry ice overnight. Upon arrival, transfer frozen cells to liquid nitrogen (-180°C) immediately until ready for use. Live cell shipment is also available on request. Primary Diabetic cells can never be kept at -20 °C or -80 °C freezer.
