HMEpC have been utilized in numerous research publications, for example to:
- Investigate the role of exosomes secreted by cancer cells in formation of tumor permissive microenvironment through manipulation of normal mammary epithelium (Dutta, 2014)
- Serve as control in a study investigating antitumor properties of cannabinoids (Ligresti, 2006) and stem cell microenvironment (Rostovit, 2008)
- Determine that differential expression of glycoproteins allows to classify human breast cells into normal, benign, malignant, basal, and luminal groups (Yen, 2011, 2013; Timpe, 2013)
- Identify ALDH isoform 5A1 as a potential target for treatment of human breast ductal carcinoma (Kaur, 2012); and determine that combination of an anti-EGFR anti-VEGFR treatment using ZD6474 with phototherapy (UV-B) is more effective in treating breast cancer than either treatment alone (Sarkar, 2013)
- Demonstrate that although SIRT deacetylates p53, it does not play a role in cell survival following DNA damage (Solomon, 2006)
- Demonstrate the important roles of tumor suppressor Maspin by showing that it promotes mammary epithelial differentiation via its interaction with IRF6 (Bailey, 2008); mediates effects of IFN- on vacuolar pH, cathepsin D processing and autophagy, protects extracellular matrix (ECM) from degradation in normal mammary epithelia, and that Maspin loss in metastatic cancer leads to unrestricted ECM degradation, contributing to metastasis (Khalkhali-Ellis, 2007, 2008); and show that loss of EcSOD expression also promotes invasiveness by disrupting ECM (Teoh-Fitzgerald, 2012, 2013)
- Investigate the role of shortened telomeres in initiation of genomic instability, cytokinesis failure and polyploidy (Tusell, 2008; Soler, 2009; Pampalona, 2012); and elucidate the role of Myc in malignancy by studying its ability to transform primary epithelial cells (Thibodeaux, 2009)
- Demonstrate, along with Human dermal Fibroblasts, that resveratrol inhibits mono-ubiquitination of histone H2B (Gao, 2011)
HMEpC, along with Human Prostate Epithelial Cells, have also been used in a study demonstrating that TGF-b1 induces Smad 1/5/8 and Smad 2/3 phosphorylation and BMP signaling results only in Smad 1/5/8 phosphorylation in these primary epithelial cells, while in cancer cells BMP also elicits Smad2/3 activation, contributing to cancerogenesis (Holtzhausen, 2013).
Characterization: the cells have a characteristic morphology consistent with an epithelial origin and are positive for epithelial cell marker cytokeratin 18.

С 2010 года мы поставляем оборудование с заводов Европы. Берем на себя все — от подбора оборудования до внедрения на предприятии

Все сотрудники имеют высшее образование, закончили ведущие химические вузы страны, такие как РХТУ им Менделеева.

У большинства компаний срок ожидания составляет 10-12 недель.

Оборудование хранится на сухом отапливаемом складе, где поддерживается ровная температура.

Работаем с PonyExpress и Деловыми линиями. Вы также можете выбрать свою транспортную компанию или забрать товар со склада в Москве.

В случае любых неполадок за свой счет выполним ремонт в сервисном центре или на заводе-изготовителе. Или бесплатно заменим прибор на новый.

Производим пуско-наладку оборудования, валидацию, обучение сотрудников. Если нужно, привлекаем инженеров с заводов- изготовителей.
