Human glial progenitor cells (A2B5+) are derived from whole brain that is quickly dissociated into single cells, cultured and purified using magnetic cell separation. Human A2B5+ glial cells are from a single donor. They are greater than 90 % positive as determined by flow cytometry. Human A2B5+ cells enable researchers to produce glial cells such as astrocytes, microglia, oligodendrocytes, and their precursors found in the central nervous system using standard published protocols. Human A2B5+ glial cells may be used for various types of in vitro, in vivo, or transplantation studies into normal or diseased systems. Development period: Prenata
