Meningeal fibroblasts surrounding the brain participate actively in the normal development of the central nervous system.
Rat Meningeal Cells (RMCs) are derived from the meninges of rats. These cells represent a heterogeneous population predominantly composed of fibroblast-like cells and exhibit spindle-shaped or stellate morphology with adherent growth characteristics. RMCs play important roles in providing structural support and maintaining extracellular matrix integrity. These cells are non-proliferative or exhibit limited proliferative capacity in vitro. They express mesenchymal markers including 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 Meningeal Cells are widely used in neuroscience research due to their critical roles in central nervous system (CNS) development, repair, and disease. These cells serve as an essential in vitro model for studying meningeal physiology, including extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, neuroinflammation, and interactions with neurons and glia. Their ability to secrete chemotactic factors makes them valuable for investigating neuronal migration and axonal guidance during development.
