- Description:IntestiCult™ Organoid differentiation medium (Human)
- Size:1 kit
- Cat. No.:MSPP-100-0214
Cell culture medium for further differentiation of human intestinal organoids in 3D, or as monolayers/air-liquid interface cultures.
IntestiCult™ Organoid Differentiation Medium (Human) is a complete culture medium that supports the further differentiation of intestinal organoids in three dimensions (3D), or in 2D as monolayers or air-liquid interface (ALI) cultures. The starting cultures can be either intestinal organoids derived from human intestinal crypts, or passaged organoids that have been cultured with IntestiCult™ Organoid Growth Medium. Intestinal cultures generated using IntestiCult™ Organoid Differentiation Medium (Human) contain physiologically relevant proportions of differentiated and stem cell populations, recapitulating the diversity of the crypt-villus axis.
When compared to conventional cell lines, intestinal monolayers exhibit greater barrier integrity, express higher levels of key differentiation markers, and have a morphology that is more representative of the in vivo intestine. Applications of intestinal organoid cultures include studying the development and function of the intestinal epithelium, modeling intestinal diseases, compound screening, and regenerative therapy approaches. Intestinal monolayer and ALI cultures are particularly amenable for permeability assays and studies of infectious diseases due to easy access to the apical surface. This kit requires IntestiCult™ Organoid Growth Medium for the initiation and expansion of intestinal organoids prior to differentiation.
