Adipose Tissue-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Extend the Lifespan and Enhance Liver Function in Hepatocyte Organoids.

In this study, we generated hepatocyte organoids (HOs) using frozen-thawed primary hepatocytes (PHs) within a three-dimensional (3D) Matrigel dome culture in a porcine model. Previously studied hepatocyte organoid analogs, spheroids, or hepatocyte aggregates created using PHs in 3D culture systems have limitations in their in vitro lifespans. By co-culturing adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (A-MSCs) with HOs within a 3D Matrigel dome culture, we achieved a 3.

Effect of Serum and Oxygen on the In Vitro Culture of Hanwoo Korean Native Cattle-Derived Skeletal Myogenic Cells Used in Cellular Agriculture.

Skeletal muscle-derived myogenic cells (SKMCs) are novel protein sources capable of replacing animal meat. However, SKMCs have not been commercialized owing to poor productivity and the high cost of in vitro cell culture. Therefore, we cultured SKMCs in varying serum (5-20%) and oxygen concentrations (5-20%) to investigate the parameters that most impact cell productivity (serum, hypoxia, and culture medium) and examined cell proliferation ability and genes involved in myogenesis/proliferation/apoptosis/reactive oxygen species (ROS).
