Cat.No.
CSC-C5017S
Description
Pericytes are fibroblast-like cells with extensive cytoplasmic processes that wrap around endothelial cells in arterioles, capillaries, and venules. The expression of α-SMA in pericytes is constantly changing at different developmental stages and in different microenvironments. During renal injury, pericytes differentiate into myofibroblasts and the level of α-SMA rises.
Rat α-SMA Positive Perirenal Myofibroblasts (rαPPMs) from Creative Bioarray are isolated from the renal tissue of rats. The method we use to isolate renal collecting duct epthelial cells was developed based on a combination of established and our proprietary methods. The rαPPMs are characterized by immunofluorescence with antibodies specific to α-SMA. Each vial contains 0.5x10^6 cells per ml and is delivered frozen.
