Description
Hepatic oval cells are a type of stem cells in the liver with strong proliferative capacity and differentiation potential. During severe acute injury to the liver, hepatic oval cells are activated and can differentiate into a variety of functional cells such as hepatic parenchymal cells and intrahepatic bile duct epithelial cells to repair the liver injury. Hepatic oval cells have both intrahepatic and extrahepatic sources. In addition, hepatic oval cells are also closely related to the development of primary hepatocellular carcinoma.
Mouse hepatic oval cells from Creative Bioarray are isolated from the mouse liver tissue. The method we use to isolate mouse hepatic oval cells was developed based on a combination of established and our proprietary methods. The mouse hepatic oval cells are characterized by immunofluorescence with antibodies specific to receptor tyrosine kinase (c-Kit) or alpha fetoprotein (AFP). Each vial contains 0.5x10^6 cells per ml and is delivered frozen.
