Culturing and Differentiation of Patient-Derived Ectocervical Epithelial Stem Cells Using Air-Liquid Interphase and Matrigel Scaffold
The ectocervix acts as a multilayered defense barrier, protecting the female reproductive system from external pathogens and supporting fertility and... -
Differentiated Epithelial Cells of the Gut
The intestine is a prime example of self-renewal where stem cells give rise to progenitor cells called transit-amplifying cells which differentiate... -
Polar microalgae extracts protect human HaCaT keratinocytes from damaging stimuli and ameliorate psoriatic skin inflammation in mice
BackgroundPolar microalgae contain unique compounds that enable them to adapt to extreme environments. As the skin barrier is our first line of...
