Cryopreservation protocol for human biliary tree stem/progenitors, hepatic and pancreatic precursors

Abstract Human biliary tree stem/progenitor cells (hBTSCs) are being used for cell therapies of patients with liver cirrhosis. A cryopreservation method was established to optimize sourcing of hBTSCs for these clinical programs and that comprises serum-free Kubota’s Medium (KM) supplemented with 10%...
