Application

Hanks′ Balanced Salt solution has been used:
  • as a component of the culture medium for culturing of mouse cortical slices
  • as a component of the dissociation buffer for incubation of human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes (CMs)
  • for in situ perfusions of mice liver

Biochem/physiol Actions

Balanced salt solution in cell culture plays multiple roles such as, an irrigating, transporting and diluting fluid while maintaining intra- and extracellular osmotic balance, and provides cells with water and certain bulk inorganic ions essential for normal cell metabolism. It is also involved in providing a buffering system to maintain the medium within the physiological pH range (7.2-7.6) and provides the principal energy source for cell metabolism.

General description

Hanks′ Balanced Salt solution is recommended for suspension cultures or whenever cell clumping is a problem.

Macrophages serve multiple functions including immune regulation, morphogenesis, tissue homeostasis and healing reactions. The current paradigm holds that mammary gland macrophages first arise postnatally during the prepubertal period from the bone marrow-derived monocytes. Here we delineate the origins of tissue-resident

Cytomegaloviruses all encode the viral inhibitor of caspase-8-induced apoptosis (vICA). After binding to this initiator caspase, vICA blocks caspase-8 proteolytic activity and ability to activate caspase-3 and/or caspase-7. In this manner, vICA has long been known to prevent apoptosis triggered
