A Novel Method for Culturing Epithelial Cells on a Biological Substrate

Abstract

A device of a new dish for the culturing of cells on a biological substrate, the eye lens capsule, is described. With the aid of this dish it is possible to investigate the possible interrelationships between the cell substratum and various biochemical characteristics of the cell. It is shown that the protein biosynthetic pattern differs between lens cells cultured on lens capsule as a substrate and cells cultured on foil. Moreover, the new dish opens the possibility to culture epithelial cells on a lens capsule, which gives an alternative to the culture of these cells on a collagen substrate.
