Description

The esophagus is an organ in vertebrates through which food passes, aided by peristaltic contractions, from the pharynx to the stomach. This system is lined by apical cell membranes and intercellular junctional complexes, which is a barrier helps to reduce exposure of surface cells to changes in osmolality. When esophagus cells grow and divide out of control, esophageal cancer occurs. The esophagus cells from Creative Bioarray are isolated from the human esophagus. At Creative Bioarray, we can offer 5 types of esophagus cells, including Human Esophagus Epithelial Cells, Human Esophageal Microvascular Endothelial Cells, Human Esophageal Epithelial Cells (HEEpiC), Human Esophageal Fibroblasts (HEF) and Human Esophageal Smooth Muscle Cells (HESMC). These cells can be used for the assay of cell-cell interaction, immunoprecipitation, immunofluorescent flow cytometry, drug screening, disease modeling or desired research applications.
