A new way to assemble cells into 3-D microtissues

...r cells (a kind of stem cell for blood cells), which depend on the presence of the growth factor interleukin-3, by combining them in microtissues with cho cells (Chinese hamster ovary cells) that were engineered to secrete interleukin-3. When the two cell types were randomly mixed, the stem cells did...

Tailor-made recombinant proteins in mammals

...ns to sites on recombinant proteins from E. coli , Bertozzi and her colleagues showed that it works equally well in the most common mammalian system, cho cells (Chinese hamster ovary cells), as well as in the HEK cell system (human embryonic kidney cells). "You can put anything you want on the tagged...
