Cat.No.
CSC-C12030Z
Description
Human pericytes are mesenchymal-like cells that are associated with a network of small blood vessels. Embedded within the vascular basement membrane and adjacent to endothelial cells, pericytes are involved in stabilization of the walls of blood vessels, regulation of blood flow and angiogenesis.

What research applications are ideal for using Immortalized Human Pericytes?

These cells are invaluable for a range of research applications, including vascular biology, angiogenesis studies, tissue engineering, wound healing, and understanding the blood-brain barrier. They also serve as a reliable model for studying pericyte-related pathologies.

How can these pericytes benefit my research compared to primary pericytes?

Immortalized Human Pericytes offer a consistent and long-lasting model that generates reproducible results, unlike primary pericytes which have a limited lifespan and exhibit donor variability. This consistency is crucial for in-depth and long-term studies.
