Description

Hepregen’s application-directed HepatoPac® Kits are in vitro tools used for predicting likely in vivo outcomes with respect to transport and metabolism of drugs and chemicals. Additionally, HepatoPac® toxicology Kits can be used to predict likley in vivo toxicologic outcomes and understand mechanisms of toxicity. HepatoPac® plates contain micropatterned co-cultures (MPCCs) of primary hepatocytes and stromal cells, a unique technology platform that simulates the micro-scale in vivo architecture of the liver: hepatopac Figure 1: schematic representation of Hepatopac® co-cultured hepatocytes and stromal cells (left) and microscopic image of micropatterned hepatocytes surrounded by stromal cells (right). (Courtesy of Hepregen.) Find out more about why architecture matters. The micropatterned architecture of HepatoPac® matures and stabilizes the hepatic phenotype, leading to superior functionality and longevity: hepatopac3 Figure 2: Albumin and urea secretion over the course of four weeks is shown for human micropatterned co-cultures and pure hepatocytes.
