Application

Endothelial Cell Growth Factor (ECGF) has been optimized for the culture of Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVEC). ECGF is optimized for the mitogenic proliferation of HUVEC cells when supplemented to CS-C Medium. ECGF should be supplemented to CS-C medium at a concentration 1 ml per 100 ml of culture medium. ECGF is prepared in DPBS (without calcium and magnesium) supplemented with porcine heparin and HBGF-1. For best results it is recommended that this product be used in conjugation with CS-C Medium for Endothelial Cell Lines (Product Nos. C 1431 or C 1556), Endothelial Attachment Factor (Product No. E 9765), Trypsin/EDTA Solution for Endothelial Cell Cultures (Product No. T 4299) and Trypsin Inhibitor Solution (Product No. T 6414).

Preparation Note

5 mg/ml each porcine heparin and HBGF-1 in DPBS without calcium and magnesium

The vestibular blood-labyrinth barrier (BLB) is comprised of perivascular-resident macrophage-like melanocytes (PVM/Ms) and pericytes (PCs), in addition to endothelial cells (ECs) and basement membrane (BM), and bears strong resemblance to the cochlear BLB in the stria vascularis. Over the past

Advanced colorectal carcinoma is currently incurable, and new therapies are urgently needed. We report that phosphotyrosine-dependent Eph receptor signaling sustains colorectal carcinoma cell survival, thereby uncovering a survival pathway active in colorectal carcinoma cells. We find that genetic and biochemical
