Description

Human Oligodendrocyte Progenitor CellsHuman Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Cells (OPCs) are primary glial progenitors derived from the cerebral white matter of healthy adult human donors. These non-adherent CNS-resident cells are capable of proliferation and directed differentiation into myelin-producing oligodendrocytes. They express markers such as NG2, PDGFRα, and O4, and downregulate these upon differentiation. Functionally, OPCs contribute to axonal insulation, remyelination, and neural repair. Impaired OPC differentiation is linked to demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis and leukodystrophies. Cells are confirmed free of mycoplasma, bacteria, fungi, HIV, HBV, and HCV, and cryopreserved under BSL-1 conditions. These cells are ideal for studies of remyelination, neuroinflammation, and CNS regenerative therapies.

Application

  • Human Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Cells (OPCs) can be used to explore the development and repair mechanisms of the central nervous system. By studying the differentiation, migration and maturation of these cells, researchers can gain a deeper understanding of the formation rules of oligodendrocytes and their role in myelination and repair, providing clues to reveal the mechanisms of neurological diseases.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the recommended medium for expanding Human Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Cells?

    AcceGen’s expansion medium (ABM-TM3732) is recommended for optimal growth and proliferation.

  • Which medium should be used for differentiating these cells?

    Use AcceGen’s differentiation medium (ABM-TX3732) to promote the differentiation of Human Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Cells.

  • What are the typical applications of Human Oligodendrocyte Progenitor Cells in research?

    These cells are used in studies of myelination, neurodegenerative diseases, and CNS repair mechanisms.
