<p class="jove_content">The aim of this method is to obtain fibroblast-derived 3D matrices as a natural scaffold for subsequent cellular assays. Fibroblasts are seeded in a pre-treated culture plate and stimulated with ascorbic acid for matrix generation. Matrices are decellularized and blocked to culture relevant cells (e.g., endothelial cells).</p>

Fibroblast-Derived 3D Matrix System Applicable to Endothelial Tube Formation Assay

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a three-dimensional scaffold that acts as the main support for cells in tissues. Besides its structural function, the ...
