    摘要: Described herein is a three-dimensional cell culture scaffold composition comprising an absorbent rigid (AR) component, and in some embodiments, further comprises a gel component. The absorbent rigid component preferably comprises a glass fiber material. It is a surprising finding of the present invention that an AR component having a void volume of between approximately 70% and 95% results in a three-dimensional cell culture composition that allows for robust, high-throughput screening and high-content screening accessible tissue models with preserved cell morphology, heterogeneity of cell types and cell populations, extracellular matrix constituents, functional cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix interactions and signaling with sufficient specificities to tissue physiology and pathology.

    摘要: The present invention it was determined that dendritic cells could be derived from various sources including peripheral blood monocytes in the presence of only GM-CSF without other cytokines if the monocytes were not activated. By preventing activation, such as by preventing binding of the cells to the surface of the culture vessel, the monocytes do not require the presence of additional cytokines, such as IL-4 or IL-13, to prevent differentiation into a non-dendritic cell lineage. The immature DCs generated and maintained in this manner were CD14 and expressed high levels of CD1a. Upon maturation by contact with an agent such as, for example, BCG and IFNγ, the cells were determined to express surface molecules typical of mature dendritic cells purified by prior methods and cultured in the presence of GM-CSF and IL-4. The mature dendritic cells produced from monocytes without activation and cultured in GM-CSF alone are suitable for use in dendritic cell-based immunotherapy methods, such as for use in the treatment of disease, including cancer.

    摘要: The present invention provides a cell culture substrate capable of culturing cells efficiently. The cell culture substrate of the present invention includes a substrate, a plurality of fibrous protrusions formed on the substrate, and water-repellent film formed on a surface of each of the fibrous protrusions. The fibrous protrusions are intertwined with each other to form a matrix structure. According to such a cell culture substrate, when a culture solution containing a specimen is discharged to the water-repellent fibrous protrusions, cells can be cultured easily without contact, thus enabling cells to be cultured efficiently.
