Rat Primary Mammary Fibroblasts from AcceGen are isolated from tissue of adult Sprague-Dawley Rats.
Rat Mammary Fibroblasts (RMFs) are primary stromal cells isolated from mammary gland tissue of adult Sprague-Dawley rats. These cells exhibit a spindle-shaped, fibroblast-like morphology with adherent growth characteristics and play important roles in extracellular matrix remodeling, tissue homeostasis, and paracrine signaling. RMFs can be expanded for a limited number of passages (typically 2-4 passages) under optimized culture conditions but are not suitable for long-term stable passaging. RMFs express the fibroblast-associated marker Vimentin. To ensure the quality of these primary cells, repeated freeze-thaw cycles are not recommended due to the fragile nature of these cells. Each lot undergoes rigorous screening and isolation procedures, and is rigorously tested to ensure it is free of contamination from Mycoplasma, Fungi, Yeast, and Bacteria.

Rat Mammary Fibroblasts (RMFs), also known as primary rat breast fibroblasts, are widely used in biomedical research due to their critical role in mammary gland biology and stromal-epithelial interactions. In vitro, RMFs serve as a model for studying extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, fibroblast activation, and fibrosis mechanisms, particularly in the context of breast tissue repair and disease. They are essential in cancer research, where their interaction with mammary tumor cells helps elucidate the tumor microenvironment’s role in cancer progression, metastasis, and drug resistance.
