homoGel® is an innovative, native human-derived extracellular matrix (ECM) that sets a new standard for biomedical research and tissue engineering. Designed to address the limitations of traditional mouse-derived scaffolds like Matrigel®, homoGel® offers unparalleled biological relevance, consistency, and ethical alignment, making it the ideal choice for researchers focused on developing accurate, human-specific tissue models.
Key Features and Benefits
- Human Specificity: homoGel® is derived from native human tissues, providing the precise biochemical and structural support necessary for human cells. This en- sures that tissue models closely mimic the natural human environment, leading to more reliable and predictive outcomes in drug testing, disease modeling, and other critical research areas.
- Consistency: homoGel® is produced under strict quality control measures, ensur- ing minimal batch-to-batch variability. This consistency is crucial for reproduc- ibility, a cornerstone of scientific research, enabling more reliable and validated results across different studies and laboratories.
- Ethical Advancement: homoGel® is an animal free product and thus reduces the reliance on animal-derived products, aligning with the growing demand for humane and sustainable research practices. This ethical approach not only ad-
dresses concerns about animal welfare but also enhances the scientific validity of research by focusing on human-relevant models.
Applications
- Organoid Culture: homoGel® supports the growth of organoids that more accu- rately replicate human organ structures and functions, leading to better disease models and more effective drug testing platforms.
- Cancer Research: Provides a human-specific environment that is critical for understanding tumor-ECM interactions, aiding in the development of new cancer treatments.
- Angiogenesis and Vascularization: homoGel® is not merely a passive scaffold; it actively regulates and guides angiogenesis by storing angiogenic factors and
- influencing the process through mechanical cues based on its physical stiffness. Regenerative Medicine: homoGel® is the scaffold for MSC and iPSC growth, serving as a cornerstone in preclinical medical testing and the development of therapeutic models for regenerative diseases and tissue repair.
- Tissue Engineering and Organ Reconstruction: homoGel® is designed to support a robust platform for in vitro organ and tissue reconstruction, as well as advance- ments in bioprinting development.
