In this chapter we illustrate protocols to investigate growth and neurotrophic factors in human and rodent (rat and mouse)-derived embryonic stem cells. The conventional two-dimensional cell monolayer system to grow embryonic stem cells is presented, focusing on the coating strategies also using extracellular matrix components. Then, different approaches for three-dimensional stem cell culture are presented, using hydrogels and scaffolds. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction, immunocytochemistry, immunoenzymatic ELISA assay, and multiparametric assays to quantify growth and neurotrophic factor production are presented.

Abstract

In this chapter we illustrate protocols to investigate growth and neurotrophic factors in human and rodent (rat and mouse)-derived embryonic stem cells. The conventional two-dimensional cell monolayer system to grow embryonic stem cells is presented, focusing on the coating strategies also using extracellular matrix components. Then, different approaches for three-dimensional stem cell culture are presented, using hydrogels and scaffolds. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction, immunocytochemistry, immunoenzymatic ELISA assay, and multiparametric assays to quantify growth and neurotrophic factor production are presented.
