We use a multi-step isolation process involving perfusion, enzymatic digestion, gradient centrifugation, and CD11b-based enrichment. This workflow yields a high proportion of Kupffer cells, characterized by distinct morphology and high F4/80/CD68 expression.
Absolutely. Kupffer cells play a central role in liver inflammation, fibrosis, steatosis, and toxin responses. These CD1 liver macrophages are frequently used in NAFLD/NASH models, LPS-induced inflammatory studies, and xenobiotic metabolism research.
Yes, we can provide suggested marker panels for flow cytometry, cytokine profiling recommendations, and protocols tailored for hepatotoxicity or metabolic studies. Our technical team can also help optimize culture conditions depending on your planned assays.
