Does PromoCell determine the percentage of HDLECs in its HDMEC lots?
Based on our experience, the proportion of lymphatic endothelial cells is highly lot-dependent and can vary considerably, typically ranging from approximately 10% to 80%.
In general, juvenile HDMEC (C‑12210) tend to contain a lower proportion of HDLECs, whereas adult HDMEC (C‑12212) typically show a considerably higher proportion of lymphatic endothelial cells.
For applications requiring a pure endothelial cell population, PromoCell also offers Human Dermal Blood Endothelial Cells (HDBEC; C‑12211, C‑12225) and Human Dermal Lymphatic Endothelial Cells (HDLEC; C‑12216, C‑12217), which are derived from HDMEC cultures and subsequently enriched for either blood or lymphatic endothelial cells, respectively.
