Human Renal Proximal Tubule Cells

AcceGen offers a normal human Renal Proximal Convoluted Tubule Epithelial cell system. Renal proximal convoluted tubule epithelial cells are an essential research tool for understanding a variety of biological processes in the kidneys. They can also be utilized to determine renal toxicity of compounds as well as to study underlying causes and fundamental aspects of human kidney diseases. AcceGen provides RPCTs cryopreserved at 500,000 cells/vial along with 50ml of RPCT plating media for each vial to establish initial culture. Purity of each lot is verified using morphology and CD13 flow cytometry – AcceGen RPCTs are qualified at >80% CD13+ upon QC release. Renal Proximal Tubule Epithelial are cryopreserved as secondary cells isolated from human kidney tissue and expanded in culture vessels twice before cryopreservation.
