Abstract:
The comparative evaluation of different 3D matrices-Matrigel, Puramatrix, and inverted colloidal crystal (ICC) scaffolds-provides a perspective for studying the pathology and potential cures for many blood and bone marrow diseases, and further proves the significance of 3D cultures with direct cell-cell contacts for in vitro mimicry of the human stem cell niche.
