3D Cell Growth on Engineered Matrices

Histotypic tissue culture uses an engineered three-dimensional matrix to grow and propagate cells. Compared with common two-dimensional tissue culture, cells in a 3D setting behave more realistically and better mimic native tissue. The method is useful when high cell density is needed.

Histotypic tissue culture allows cells to be grown in three dimensions, thereby creating in-vitro tissue morphologies that closely mimic realistic tissue function, which can be used as viable constructs for tissue repair. These cultures are typically three dimensional structures consisting of a single cell type grown in high density. The three d...
