Application Note Bhavya Shah, John Huang TheWell Bioscience, North Brunswick, NJ 08902 Introduction Despite recent progression, the need for reliable, repeatable in vitro three-dimensional (3D) tissue culture human skin models exist to further understand the mechanisms behind various pathologies related to the skin and/or dermal fibroblasts1-3. Such 3D models are increasingly important as two-dimensional (2D) […]
Application Note Nana-Fatima Haruna, Bhavya Shah,John HuangTheWell Bioscience, North Brunswick, NJ 08902 Introduction There is an increasing need for the generation of data that accurately reflects the biological systems of patients 1-3. To achieve this goal, researchers need to study disease models in microenvironments that depict the complex human extracellular matrix and support the comprehensive […]
Application Note Nana-Fatima Haruna, Bhavya Shah, John Huang TheWell Bioscience, North Brunswick, NJ 08902 Introduction Cancer is a very meticulous disease that involves heterogeneous solid tumors subjected to complex extracellular conditions. These conditions, such as hypoxia and extracellular compositions, contribute to the pathogenesis of the disease. The functional activity and gene expression patterns of the […]
Application Note Nana-Fatima Haruna, John Huang TheWell Bioscience, North Brunswick, NJ 08902 Introduction Glioblastoma is the most common primary tumor in the central nervous system. With an incidence of 3–5 out of 100,000 persons in Western countries, glioblastoma is one of the most deadly forms of malignant tumors, which has a median survival time of […]
Application Note Nana-Fatima Haruna, Atsuo Ochi, John Huang TheWell Bioscience, North Brunswick, NJ 08902 Introduction Invasion studies have been crucial in identifying key intracellular signaling pathways and membrane-bound and soluble enzymes that influence cellular movement through a three dimensional (3D) extracellular matrix (ECM)1,2. Such information has been used to investigate mechanisms governing the infiltration of […]

Poster Presentation TheWell Bioscience Inc. Nana Fatima Haruna, Ziwen Vivian Wang, John Huang TheWell Bioscience, Inc., North Brunswick NJ 08902 Abstract The hydrogel-based 3D cell culture model more accurately depicts the microenvironment of cells in vivo than the traditional 2D cell culture system, which enables cells to grow, develop, operate, and produce feedback as if […]
Application Note TheWell Bioscience Inc. Introduction Glioblastoma is an aggressive type of cancer that occurs in the brain or spinal cord. Over the years, various models of glioblastoma have been developed to help understand the mechanism initiation and progression1,2. However, this has been complicated by the diverse and complex genetic and environmental factors that promote […]
Application Note TheWell Bioscience Inc. Introduction Mesenchymal stem cells are a type of adult multipotent stem cell that gives rise to bone, cartilage, adipose, and connective tissue. Over the last two decades, they have become a wildly popular potential alternative to embryonic stem cells for regenerative medicine because of their broad plasticity, immunomodulatory, and anti-inflammatory […]
A comparison study of VitroGel® and Matrigel® for long-term neuron maturation and survival in vitro Comparison Study Martin L. Tomov Stanley Center; Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard Introduction Three-dimensional (3D) tissue cultures have numerous advantages compared to traditional two-dimensional (2D) cultures [1; 5]. Minimizing exposure to hard surfaces can improve cell maturation and survival […]
