| Product Description | Extracel-HP™ hydrogels facilitate the use of growth factors (GFs) in 3-D cell culture and in vivo angiogenesis studies within an easily customizable, heparin-containing environment. Extracel-HP™ is a synthetic extracellular matrix (ECM) that can be injected and crosslinked in situ. Unlike an animal-derived extracellular matrix (ECM), Extracel-HP™ is fully chemically defined and nonimmunogenic. The immobilized heparin in the hydrogel mimics the heparin sulfate proteoglycans normally present in the extracellular matrix (ECM). It also helps protect GFs from proteolysis and slows their release to attached cells. This reduces the amount of GF required to achieve stimulation of cell growth or differentiation when compared to the use of free GF in media. All GFs tested to date (bFGF, VEGF, Ang-1, PDGF, TGFβ1, KGF) are released at different rates, but over a period of several weeks1,2,3. |
