Cells in Action: Mitosis in Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs)
Watch the process of cell division in PromoCell's human mesenchymal stem cells! These images were captured using Nanolive’s non-invasive technology, which allows us to access the dynamics of biological processes, such as mitosis, with unprecedented resolution. -
How to achieve a reliable Air-Liquid Interface (ALI) Culture
Watch our explainer video to find out how to use our Air-Liquid Interface Culture system for respiratory research in an environment that replicates in vivo. -
Improve the reproducibility of your research with standardized primary cell culture techniques
This webinar provides expert’s tips and tricks in successfully handling human primary cells and learn how to standardize primary cell culture techniques. -
HLA-Typed Primary Cells: The advantages of working with HLA in drug development research
For those working in drug development, human leukocyte antigens or HLA are a key element to keep in mind as an essential regulator of the immune system. Watch our latest explainer video to understand the benefits of working with HLA in your pre-clinical research. -
Tissue engineering of the respiratory epithelium: insights in culture methods and applications
This webinar addresses both interested beginners as well as advanced scientists in the field and focuses on key issues like cell sources, air liquid interface (ALI) culture, medium demands and current challenges regarding reproducibility and standardization. -
Getting started with primary cells – Standard procedures in cell culture
In this quick start guide, we review the finer points of thawing, plating, and passaging primary human cells. Even if you’re experienced using these cells, we review some of the little things that can make a large difference in your cell culture success with our cells. Presented by PromoCell Application Specialist, Dr Melissa Olekson. -
Cells in action: Differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells into neurons
Cells in action: Differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells into neurons In this video we can see the differentiation of PromoCell umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells into neurons. Excitingly, to our knowledge this is one of the first high-resolution, long-term, live cell time-lapses showing this process. These cells were grown for 13 days in PromoCell complete mesenchymal stem cell neurogenic differentiation medium prior to capture of this film. Images were captured every 30 seconds over a 20-hour period using NanoLive’s 3D Cell Explorer. -
MSC reproducibility: Towards the standardization of Mesenchymal Stem Cells
For science to move forwards, the research we do must be reproducible. One of the ways we’re helping your work be as consistent as possible is through our characterized MSCs. -
Cells in Action: Human Primary Keratinocytes at the stratum granulosum
Keratinocytes at the stratum granulosum contain two characteristic structures that are visible in this high resolution footage by Nanolive - the lamellar bodies and keratohyalin granules. While keratohyalin granules contain proteins involved in the aggregation of keratin filaments and in the formation of the cell envelope, lamellar bodies contain lipids and fuse with the plasma membrane in order to secrete the content into the extracellular space. -
Cells in Action: membrane protrusions in HUVECs (Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells)
During angiogenesis, cell-matrix interactions are crucial. The cell matrix structures are involved in migration, invasion and survival of cells throughout the angiogenic process. In this video we can see filopodia and lamellipodia in great detail, thanks to Nanolive imaging's ability to view membrane deformations. These structures are essential for migration, cell-cell interactions, sensing of the cell environment and more. While filopodia appear as long, thin protrusion-like structures that emerge from the cellular membrane, lamellipodia are broad, sheet-shaped structures containing thin and short interconnected actin filaments. -
Cells in Action: Double mitosis of Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVECs)
Images of cells undergoing mitosis are mind-blowing, and non more beautiful than those of our Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVECs) captured by Nanolive's 3D Cell Explorer. On the right hand side, the cell seems to enter mitosis but the chromatids don't complete segregation and the cell returns to interphase without dividing. Exiting mitosis is controlled by proteolysis and cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs). Mitosis regulatory machinery sometimes detects errors and forces a return to interphase, as seen here. This kind of research helps develop understanding of the cell cycle, which can be used in myriad applications including cancer research. -
Cancer cell culture: Diversity of cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME)
Tumor growth is sustained by a highly diverse microenvironment, the TME. Its complex cellular interactions need serious consideration during Cancer Research.
