Storage: -196C
Application: Primary Human Pulmonary Artery Smooth Muscle Cells (HPASMC) are isolated from human pulmonary arteries and are provided in a cryopreserved format. HPASMC stain positive for smooth muscle alpha-actin. They are suited for studying the function of pulmonary arteries under normal and disease conditions (e.g. vasoconstriction induced by alveolar hypoxia). They are also useful for physiological studies of vascular smooth muscle cells.
Other Notes: Recommended Plating Density: 7500 - 10000 cells per cm2Passage After Thawing: P2Tested Markers: Smooth muscle alpha-actin positiveGuaranteed population doublings: >15
