Product Overview
Description
RFP-Expressing Human Retinal Microvascular Pericytes are advanced human retinal vascular support cells specifically engineered to produce Red Fluorescent Protein (RFP). This innovative adaptation allows researchers to easily visualize and monitor these cells in real time during live cell imaging and in co-culture systems, as well as in various vascular model studies.
These pericytes play a crucial role in the health and function of the retinal microvasculature, making them invaluable for exploring key processes such as angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels), the integrity of the blood-retinal barrier, and the pathophysiology of diabetic retinopathy. Additionally, they facilitate the study of interactions between endothelial cells and pericytes, which are essential for maintaining vascular stability and function in the retina.
IMPORTANT: Quality warranty requires use of NeoBioPharma media. Biohazardous material despite negative pathogen testing. Quality claims must be reported within 1 month.
