What are the Applications of Cell Culture Systems in Histology?
Cell culture systems have a wide range of applications in histology:
Drug Testing and Development: Cultured cells are used to screen potential drug candidates and assess their effects on cellular functions and viability. Cancer Research: Cell culture models help in understanding cancer biology, identifying biomarkers, and testing anti-cancer therapies. Tissue Engineering: Cells are cultured to create tissue constructs for regenerative medicine and transplantation. Genetic Studies: Researchers use cultured cells to study gene function, regulation, and expression.
