Abstrakt: State-of-the-art cell culture systems may enlist a variety of features to push the significance of in vitro models beyond classical 2D single cell culture; among them are the 3D scaffolds of organic or artificial materials, multi-cell setups, and the use of primary cells as source materials. Obviously, operational complexity increases with each additional feature and feasibility, whereas reproducibility may suffer.We report a multicellular setup using primary human cells and the Mimetas scaffold that aims to increase pathophysiological significance of in vitro culture and simultaneously allows for relatively high-throughput and easy handling.
