Queratinocitos epidérmicos adultos NHEK-ad de donante único, 500.000 céls

Cryopreserved Normal Human Epidermal Keratinocytes are guaranteed through 18 population doublings for adult cells. All cells test negative for mycoplasma, bacteria, yeast, and fungi. HIV-1, hepatitis B and hepatitis C are not detected for all donors and/or cell lots. A Certificate of Analysis is provided for each cell lot purchased. Normal Human Dermal fibroblasts from matched donors are available for certain lots.

• Human Papillomaviruses (HPV) mediated skin cancer response: An infection of the skin with human papillomaviruses (HPV) may result in benign tumors with limited growth, which tend to regress spontaneously and causes non-melanoma skin cancer development in epidermodysplasia verruciformis (EV) and immunosuppressed patients. The present study utilized pooled keratinocytes cultured in KGMTM-Gold Medium from several healthy donors. The data showed that betaPV may increase the number of stem cell-like cells present during early carcinogenesis and thus enable the persistence and accumulation of DNA damage necessary to generate malignant stem cells.
