Human Renal Cortical Epithelial Cells

Description

Human Renal Cortical Epithelial Cells are derived from the kidney tissue of healthy human donors. Cryopreserved at early passage, these cells display a cuboidal morphology and adherent growth. They play key roles in the reabsorption of water, electrolytes, and nutrients, as well as in the secretion of waste products, thereby maintaining renal tubular homeostasis. These renal cells are relevant to studies on acute tubular necrosis, renal tubular injury, and chronic kidney disease progression. They express epithelial markers such as cytokeratin-18 and cytokeratin-19, and maintain a normal human karyotype. Each lot undergoes rigorous screening and isolation procedures, and is rigorously tested to ensure it is free of contamination from HIV-1, HBV, HCV, Syphilis, Mycoplasma, Fungi, Yeast, and Bacteria.
