Solutions for Blood Brain Barrier Research

Neuromics Has the Key Components!

We are pleased to add Human Brain Microvascular Pericytes (HBMVPCs) to our solution set for Blood Brain Barrier (BBB) Researchers. These join our Human Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells and hAstroPro Human Astrocyte+Astroglial-Neurons Co-Culturing Kits to round out our offerings of cells involved in BBB regulation.

Pericytes function at the BBB in at least two ways: by regulating BBB-specific gene expression patterns in endothelial cells, and by inducing polarization of astrocyte end-feet surrounding CNS blood vessels (see: http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v468/n7323/full/nature09522.html).

hNP1 Neural Progenitors and Neuronal Regeneration after Injury

The Potential of Axonal PPARγ

In this study, researchers used our hNP1^TM Neural Progenitors to demonstrate that axonal PPARγ is involved in neuronal injury responses required for axonal regeneration: Juan Pablo Lezana, Shachar Y. Dagan, Ari Robinson, Ron S. Goldstein, Mike Fainzilber, Francisca C. Bronfman, and Miguel Bronfman. Axonal pparγ promotes neuronal regeneration after injury. DOI: 10.1002/dneu.22353... Culture and regeneration analysis of human axons. NP1 human neural precursors were purchased from Neuromics (Minnesota, USA) and passaged up to 8 times before generation of neurons. Cells were used up until passage 10 after defrosting the purchased neural...

It is important to note that the researchers built up a large stock by passaging the progenitors prior to differentiation.
