Gallbladder Cells

The gallbladder is a hollow organ that sits just beneath the right lobe of the liver. The gallbladder cells from Creative Bioarray are isolated from human gallbladder tissue. Each vial contains >5 x 10^5 cells in 1 ml volume. At Creative Bioarray, we can offer Human Gallbladder Fibroblasts (HGBF). HGBF are responsible for eicosanoid synthesis, specifically PGI2. Chronic stimulation of HGBF results in up-regulated synthesis and release of PGI2, which aids in formation of early acute cholecystitis. HGBF are very versatile cells and could be used to study many different conditions, including early stages of acute cholecystitis.
