Advanced cell culture technology for generation of in vivo-like tissue models (2017)
Journal Article
Przyborski, S. (2017). Advanced cell culture technology for generation of in vivo-like tissue models. International journal of health animal science & food safety, 4(1), https://doi.org/10.13130/2283-3927/8524

Human tissues are mostly composed of different cell types, that are often highly organised in relation to each other. Often cells are arranged in distinct layers that enable signalling and cell-to-cell interactions. Here we describe the application o...
