Human Mesothelial Cells, Adult

Description

Human Mesothelial Cells (HMtCs) are primary cells isolated from healthy human peritoneal tissue. Following primary culture, these cells are cryopreserved. These specialized epithelial cells form a protective monolayer that serves critical physiological functions, enabling frictionless movement of organs and tissues. They are involved in ovarian cancer metastasis, peritoneal dialysis-related responses, surgical adhesions, inflammatory signaling, and aspects of metabolic regulation. These cells show expression of mesothelial markers calretinin, WT1, and podoplanin (D2-40). As primary cells, they possess limited proliferative capacity. To preserve optimal performance, repeated freezing and thawing should be avoided during culture. The cells undergo rigorous screening and isolation procedures, and are rigorously tested to ensure they are free of contamination from HIV-1, HBV, HCV, Syphilis, Mycoplasma, Fungi, Yeast, and Bacteria.
