CHARACTERIZATION OF INFLAMMATORY MEDIATOR RELEASE FROM AN IN VITRO HUMAN TRACHEAL/BRONCHIAL EPITHELIAL TISSUE MODEL.

Monolayer cultures of human-derived tracheal/bronchial epithelial (TBE) cells have been instrumental in understanding the mechanisms of respiratory tract pathologies such as cystic fibrosis, asthma, and tracheal and bronchial inflammation. However, cells in monolayer culture lack the differentiated function of normal... Read More

VAGINAL FORMULATION – HOW INNOCUOUS ARE THEY TO THE VAGINAL EPITHELIAL IMMUNE FUNCTION?

This study by researchers in the Harvard Medical School Dept. of Obstetrics and Gynecology demonstrated that MatTek’s EpiVaginal in vitro human cervico-vaginal tissue equivalent is an excellent tissue model for performing both immunoinflammatory characterization and safety assessment of vaginal products....

ATTENUATION OF SURFACTANT-INDUCED INTERLEUKIN 1α EXPRESSION BY ZINC PYRITHIONE.

Background: Dandruff is believed to be a fungus-mediated disease which responds to the topical delivery of antifungal agents. Although the primary causative factor is fungus related, distal events include an inflammatory cascade that eventually expresses itself as corneocyte flakes. The... Read More

SAFETY EVALUATION OF NANOSILVER USING RECONSTRUCTED HUMAN GIT TISSUES

In our pilot study focused on safety evaluation of nanosilver three novel commercially available reconstructed human tissues were used for mimicking the human gastrointestinal tract (GIT). The evaluated endpoints included tissue viability, cytokine release and penetration of silver into the... Read More
