cardiovascular model |
|
| | > | | | Our cardiovascular models are adapted to the analysis of endothelial cardiovascular cells: primary endothelial and human smooth muscle cells cultures derived from the aorta, the coronary arteries, the iliac, the umbilical vein, etc. |
| | > | | | These primary cells are cultured in plastic wells or on a porous filter which divides the culture chamber into two compartments: an apical compartment which corresponds to the lumen, and a basal compartment. It is possible to access both compartments and thus control the composition of their respective mediums constantly. |
| | > | | | When primary cells are cultured in an appropriate medium they form a monolayer which reproduces a functional endothelium or muscularis. |
