Rat Fibroblasts

Here you can find rat cardiac, lymphatic, dermal, perineural and pulmonary fibroblasts and associated media to grow the cells.

Fibroblasts are mesenchymal cells derived from the embryonic mesoderm. They are one of easiest types of cells to grow in culture, and their durability makes them amenable to a wide variety of manipulations ranging from studies employing gene transfection to microinjection. There is good evidence that fibroblasts in different parts of the body are intrinsically different. Fibroblasts within tissues are exposed to a dynamic mechnical environment, which influences the structure integrity of both healthy and healing soft tissue.
