In a previous post, I introduced several models to study the cardiac human system. This first post introduced human aortic, brachiocephalic, carotid artery and coronary artery cells isolated by Cell Applications Inc. Here is the second part of this inventory of cellular models to study the human cardiac system, where I’ll be highlighting human internal thoracic artery, pulmonary artery, subclavian artery cells, cardiac fibroblasts and cardiomyocytes.

Later on, I’ll conclude this series by part III, referring to animal cellular models for studying the cardiac system. But let’s now concentrate on today’s topic!

In this post, I’d like to  introduce human aortic, brachiocephalic, carotid artery and coronary artery cells isolated by Cell Applications Inc. In a future post, I’ll be highlighting human internal thoracic artery, pulmonary artery, subclavian artery cells and cardiomyocytes (now published here).

After taking a look at several cell types as models for studying different aspects of cardiovascular functions and diseases, I’ll cover some recently published results highlighting the importance of securing your primary cells sourcing.
