Cat.NO iNPC-01
The iNPCs from iCells International, derived from human iPSCs and can be used to construct models of neurological diseases, conduct research on neural development mechanisms, and explore nerve repair and other aspects.
Product Overview
Neural precursor cells (NPCs) are essential components of the central nervous system (CNS), characterized by their ability to self-renew and differentiate into various neural lineages, including neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes. These cells play a crucial role in neural development, learning, memory, and have been the focus of regenerative medicine due to their potential in neuroregeneration and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
The iNPCs from iCells International, derived from human iPSCs, stand as a testament to purity and excellence, offering an unparalleled population of research-grade neural precursor cells. Embrace the future of neuroscience with iNPCs, where innovation meets precision to unlock the potential of regenerative medicine and beyond.
1. High Purity: Ensuring a predominantly NPC population is essential for accurate experimental outcomes, allowing researchers to study the specific mechanisms of neural development and function without the interference of other cell types.
2. Multipotential Differentiation: iNPCs maintain the ability to differentiate into the three major neural lineages, providing a versatile tool for studying neural differentiation and the development of neural circuits.
3. Customizability: The versatility of iNPCs is enhanced by the ability to derive them from a wide range of donor iPSC lines, facilitating the study of genetic diversity and the development of personalized medicine strategies.
4. Scalability: The capacity to produce large quantities of iNPCs is crucial for high-throughput screening, enabling the rapid evaluation of potential therapeutics and the advancement of drug discovery.
5. Regenerative Medicine Potential: iNPCs have shown promise in regenerative medicine, particularly in strategies involving the replacement of damaged neural tissue, the promotion of endogenous neural repair, and the exploration of combinatorial therapies with other neural cell types.
6. Research Applications: Beyond regenerative medicine, iNPCs are valuable tools for studying the basic biology of the CNS, understanding the mechanisms of neurological disorders, and developing treatments for a range of neurodegenerative diseases.
