Webinar: September 15th, 10am ET

Creating a dynamic tumor microenvironment with Cell-Mate3D

Guest Speaker: Dr. Ehab Sarsour University of Iowa

Dr. Ehab Sarsour is an adjunct assistant professor at the University of Iowa where his work focuses on free radical and radiation biology.  Dr. Sarsour presented his translational research that uses co-cultures in Cell-Mate3D to model pancreatic cancer microenvironments.  He demonstrated how the Cell-Mate3D system helped him to study normal and cancer cell interactions for developing treatment strategies.

This webinar will highlight

  • Importance of matrix materials in tumor modeling
  • How researchers have modeled disease using Cell-Mate3D
  • Considerations for your experimental design

Webinar attendees received a $150 credit toward BRTI Life Sciences products

BRTI Life Sciences to provide “tissue-like” microenvironment to support pancreatic islets for JDRF funded University of Minnesota study.

BRTI Life Sciences’ unique 3D matrix will be included in a study at the University of Minnesota of immunoisolated islets in a structured biomimetic environment to treat insulin-dependent diabetes. The study, which is fully funded by the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), employs a device, including islets embedded in BRTI’s unique microenvironment, that will be implanted under the skin of nonhuman primates. The device is designed to eliminate the need for immunosuppression drugs to protect the islets.  This novel approach may lower the cost and risk of islet transplantation for patients with insulin-dependent diabetes, freeing them from the need for routine insulin injections.
To learn more, see the JDRF funded abstract.

New publication using Cell-Mate3D

“A chitosan-hyaluronan based hydrogel-hydrocolloid supports in vitro culture and differentiation of human mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs)” was recently accepted in Tissue Engineering Part A.  This article describes how Cell-Mate3D can improve differentiation potential and induce more complex structures compared to 2D cultures.
