Application

D-(−)-Ribose has been used for microtissue fabrication and in cell culture.
This D-ribose has been qualified for use as a supplement in cell culture.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ribose is an aldopentose monosaccharide that is phosphorylated into D-ribose 5-phosphate by ribokinase. Ribose-5-phosphate supports the biosynthesis of tryptophan and histidine and is a component of the pentose phosphate pathway.

When stretched, cells cultured on 2D substrates share a universal softening and fluidization response that arises from poorly understood remodeling of well-conserved cytoskeletal elements. It is known, however, that the structure and distribution of the cytoskeleton is profoundly influenced by

Characterizing the time-dependent mechanical properties of cells is not only necessary to determine how they deform but also to understand how external forces trigger biochemical-signaling cascades to govern their behavior. At present, mechanical properties are largely assessed by applying local

Cell cycle regulation is dependent on multiple cellular and molecular events. Cell proliferation requires metabolic sources for the duplication of DNA and cell size. However, nucleotide reservoirs are not sufficient to support cell duplication and, therefore, biosynthetic pathways should be
