摘要:
An apparatus is provided for producing cell electrofusion (20) wherein the cells to be fused are directed to and retained on one side of a substrate (34) and between the electrodes (30, 32). Thus, a significant portion of the cells are in close cell-to-cell contact so that dielectrophoresis is not needed before electrofusion. In a preferred embodiment, the substrate is porous (34) and the cells are held onto the porous substrate by means of a vacuum (38).

A method of producing a sustained localized immunosuppressive effect in localized tissues is achieved by transplanting Sertoli cells proximate to the tissue.
摘要:
A new and useful apparatus for producing cell electrofusion is provided. The apparatus comprises: a. a chamber with a substrate disposed therein; b. means for directing the cells to be fused toward one side of the substrate; and c. a device for inducing fusion of the portion of the cells.
