Project Details
FACS-based cell isolation and clinical translation ((4)-Q03)
Subject Area
Gastroenterology
Term
from 2009 to 2020
Project identifier
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 36842431
The Q3 Core Unit provides the projects with reliably, standardized and efficiently isolated primary cells from liver and kidney from mice and rats. We have established FACS-based protocols for isolating hepatic stellate cells, sinusoidal endothelium as well as renal podocytes and parietal cells. We are currently extending our protocols to human cell types for translational projects.
