What primary human diseased airway cells does Lonza offer?

Bronchial Epithelial Cells, Lung Fibroblasts, and Bronchial Smooth Muscle Cells from asthmatic and COPD donors and if available from donors with Cystic fibrosis. An overview of the diseased cells can be found at:...

How is the disease state for Lonza’s diseased airway cells determined?

The tissue received for all of Lonza’s diseased airway cells are obtained from donors which were diagnosed by an accredited physician prior to death. Frequently, Lonza will obtain information on medications taken related to the disease which will...

How long will your Clonetics™ rat DRG's (dorsal root ganglion cells) remain viable in culture?

The cells can remain viable in culture for about 28 days.

How does Lonza test for quality of the diseased airway cells?

Diseased Bronchial Epithelial Cells are characterized by morphology through serial passage and some are tested for differentiation using B-ALI™ Differentiation protocols, these are tested for TEER levels, ciliogenesis, and mucin production. Diseased...
