Gibco™ HepaRG™ Cells, Cryopreserved
Description
Biologically Relevant
HepaRG™ cells exhibit many characteristics of primary human hepatocytes including morphology, expression of key metabolic enzymes, expression of nuclear receptors, and drug transporters. Unlike HepG2 and Fa2N-4 cells, HepaRG™ cells have high P450 activity and complete expression of all nuclear receptors.
Predict Metabolism-based Drug-drug Interaction
HepaRG™ cells respond to prototypical P450 inducers and inhibitors to the same extent as primary hepatocytes, allowing HepaRG™ cells to be used to evaluate potential drug-drug interactions.
Infinitely Reproducible
HepaRG™ cells exhibit many characteristics of primary human hepatocytes and are essentially a single donor. These features allow users to obtain physiological relevant results for metabolism-based drug-drug interactions without the concern of donor variability and limited lot sizes that come with relying on donor tissue. (Note: The cells we provide are terminally differentiated).
