Product Overview
Description
Human Retinal Microvascular Pericytes are unique and essential support cells that reside around the delicate small blood vessels in the retina. These specialized cells play a vital role in ensuring the stability of retinal capillaries by providing structural support and regulating the functions of endothelial cells.
Additionally, pericytes are critical for maintaining the integrity of the blood-retinal barrier, a protective barrier that regulates the exchange of substances between the blood and the retinal tissue, thereby ensuring proper retinal function and health.
Guarantee expansion for a minimum of 2-5 population doublings.
IMPORTANT: Quality warranty requires use of NeoBioPharma media. Biohazardous material despite negative pathogen testing. Quality claims must be reported within 1 month.
