所有动物实验均符合 ARVO 关于在眼科和视觉研究中使用动物的声明，并按照动物护理和使用研究所委员会 （IACUC） 和奥克兰大学政策（协议编号 2022-1160）批准的动物协议进行
1. 培养基和溶液制备
<ol><li>通过在 Dulbecco 改良 Eagle 培养基（DMEM，材料表中的详细信息）中补充 1:1000 稀释的青霉素/链霉素来制备 Müller 细胞眼溶液。例如，对于 10 mL 的 DMEM，添加 10 μL 青霉素/链霉素。 注意:这是一种制备的简单无血清培养基。此外，在用于细胞培养工作之前，将完全培养基在 37 °C 水浴中加热。</li>
	<li>通过在 DMEM 中补充 10% 胎牛血清（FBS，热灭活）和 1% 青霉素/链霉素，制备完整的原代 Müller 细胞生长培养基。例如（500 mL DMEM 培养基 + 50 mL FBS + 5 mL 青霉素/链霉素）。</li>
	<li>用浓度为 200 U/mL 的胶原酶 IV 制备 0.05% 胰蛋白酶-EDTA 溶液（胰蛋白酶-EDTA 用于溶解计算量的胶原酶 IV 粉末以达到所需浓度）。</li>
</ol>2. 眼球摘除术
<ol><li>按照 IACUC 指南使用 CO2 吸入对小鼠进行道德安乐死。<ol><li>简而言之，将动物置于 CO2 室中，以腔室体积/分钟的 30-70% 填充率引入 100% CO2，以达到 2-3 分钟内快速失去知觉的目标，对小鼠的痛苦最小。</li>
		<li>由于小鼠年龄较小 （~10 天），因此将颈椎脱位作为辅助方法，以确保适当的安乐死。</li>
	</ol></li>
	<li>用 70% 乙醇对工作区域消毒后，将鼠标放在无菌垫上。</li>
	<li>将镊子的臂放在眼睛后部，轻轻地从眼眶区域拉出，然后用 5/45 式镊子对眼眶区域施加压力以引起眼球突出，从而取出眼睛。 注意:解剖前用 70% 乙醇消毒解剖工具，然后用磷酸盐缓冲盐水消毒。</li>
	<li>通过缓慢包裹眼睛，确保视神经仍然连接到眼睛。确保将视神经（视觉识别为白索）拉到眼睛后面。 注意:此步骤不需要在显微镜下进行，可以在灭菌的工作台上进行。</li>
</ol>3. 眼摘除的治疗
<ol><li>用铝箔覆盖 15 mL 离心管，并在试管中加入 10 mL Müller 细胞眼溶液。</li>
	<li>将解剖的眼睛放入含有 Müller 细胞眼溶液的 15 mL 试管中，让它们在室温下放置过夜或约 18 小时。</li>
	<li>18 小时后，倒出眼液，并用 2-3 mL 温热 （37 °C） 磷酸盐缓冲盐水 （PBS） 短暂冲洗眼睛。</li>
	<li>倒出 PBS 并将眼睛移至含有 10 mL 胰蛋白酶溶液的 100 mm 培养皿中。（在步骤 1.3 中准备）。 注:胰蛋白酶用于整个去核眼，作为解离剂，在解剖过程中促进细胞与视网膜层分离。解剖的视网膜有许多细胞，包括 RPE 细胞，这些细胞很粘，最有可能污染 Müller 细胞培养物 14。显微镜检查清楚地表明，分离 5 天后（第一次更换培养基期间），RPE 细胞从板中分离并死亡13。用于 RPE 分离的培养基是 DMEM/F-12，其成分与 DMEM（用于 Müller 细胞分离）不同，含有丙酮酸钠和低葡萄糖。</li>
	<li>将培养皿放入培养箱中，在 37 °C 和 5% CO2 下孵育 1.5 至 2 小时。</li>
	<li>孵育后，将眼睛转移到含有大约 5 mL 完整原代 Müller 细胞生长培养基的 60 mm 培养皿中。</li>
</ol>4. 解剖
注:此程序必须在培养罩的无菌环境中进行。因此，必须用 70% 的酒精对通风橱表面以及所有工具和解剖显微镜进行彻底消毒。值得注意的是，该视频是在引擎盖外录制的，以便更好地看到和更清晰的演示目的。
<ol><li>在培养皿中放入一小块消毒的实验室级组织，以帮助在解剖过程中稳定眼睛。将眼睛放在解剖显微镜下开始解剖。 注:使用实验室级组织有助于在充满液体的培养皿（完全培养基）中操纵眼睛，确保精确解剖。</li>
	<li>使用 Vannas 剪刀和 M5S 式镊子去除结缔组织、眼外肌和视神经。<ol><li>用 M5S 风格的镊子抓住眼睛，然后用 Vannas 剪刀或注射器针头在 ora 锯齿切片上切开。 注意:眼睛的前部和后部之间有一条浅蓝色的圆线，称为 ora serrata，可以用作解剖过程中准确方向的标志。</li>
		<li>用 M5S 式镊子抓住切口，从眼睛后部拉出或撕裂角膜。以小增量拉动以确保视网膜的完整性保持完整。 注意:这些步骤是从眼罩的后部（神经和色素视网膜）中去除眼睛的前部（角膜、虹膜和晶状体）。</li>
		<li>为了保持视网膜层的完整性，轻轻拉动并从神经视网膜上去除视网膜色素上皮。神经视网膜应没有任何黑色斑点，以尽可能确保分离的纯度，因为 RPE 层通常是粘性的并附着在神经元视网膜上。</li>
		<li>将解剖的神经视网膜切成小块，然后再将其收集到板中，以确保细胞在板上均匀分布。</li>
	</ol></li>
	<li>将神经视网膜接种在含有 4 mL 完整原代 Müller 细胞生长培养基的 T25 培养瓶中。</li>
	<li>最后，将培养瓶放入培养箱中，并在 37 °C 和 5% CO2 下孵育。</li>
</ol>5. 原代 Müller 神经胶质细胞的培养
<ol><li>3-5 天内不要移动培养瓶，以促进细胞生长。</li>
	<li>第五天后更换培养基，此后每隔一天更换一次，直到细胞达到 90% 汇合。</li>
</ol>6. 原代 Müller 神经胶质细胞的传代
<ol><li>吸出 Müller 细胞培养基，然后在 PBS 中洗涤 2 mL，然后吸出 PBS。加入 2 mL 0.25% 胰蛋白酶-EDTA （1x） 或足以覆盖板。</li>
	<li>在室温下孵育 5-10 分钟。</li>
	<li>确保在显微镜下将细胞从板上分离。然后，收集细胞悬液，并向收集管中加入 4 mL 预热 （37 °C） 完全原代 Müller 细胞生长培养基（在步骤 1.2 中制备）。</li>
	<li>以 300 x g 离心 7 分钟。吸出上清液后，将沉淀重悬于 10 mL 完整的原代 Müller 细胞生长培养基中。因为细胞数量可以根据解剖的眼睛数量而变化，因此，最好在接种和孵育之前对细胞进行计数。推荐的接种密度为 3.0 x 106 个细胞，溶于 T75 培养瓶中。 注:细胞最多可传代 4-5 次。然而，最一致的实验结果是在 1-2 代后发现的。</li>
</ol>7. 免疫荧光
注:使用免疫荧光方案对 Müller 细胞特异性进行染色和验证。以下是免疫荧光实验步骤的简要概述。此步骤在第一次传代12 后执行。
<ol><li>将细胞接种到细胞培养室载玻片中（8 孔室载玻片每孔 30,000 个细胞）。</li>
	<li>将分离的细胞在完整的Müller细胞培养基（在步骤1.2中制备）中于37°C和5%CO2下培养24-48小时。</li>
	<li>当细胞汇合 80-90% 时，吸出培养基并在每个孔上用 250-300 μL 1x PBS 洗涤腔室载玻片。</li>
	<li>在每个孔中用 250-300 μL 4% 多聚甲醛固定载玻片 10 至 15 分钟，然后用 PBS/TX-100 洗涤（每个 5 分钟/3 次）。</li>
	<li>在 37 °C 下加入封闭缓冲液 1 小时（参见 材料表）。</li>
	<li>吸出封闭溶液，然后添加对 Müller 细胞具有特异性的一抗，以使用谷氨酰胺合成酶和波形蛋白 5,12 确认分离细胞的纯度。在 37 °C 下孵育 3 小时（使用 1:100-1:200 的抗体浓度在封闭缓冲液中，体积为 150-200 μL/玻片）。用 PBS/TX-100 洗涤剂洗涤载玻片（各 5 分钟和 10 分钟）。 注:选择这些抗体是因为它们是识别 Müller 细胞和确保 Müller 细胞培养成功和纯度的标志。</li>
	<li>加入二抗（抗体浓度范围为 1:1000，溶于 150-200 μL/玻片的封闭缓冲液中）并在 37 °C 下孵育 1 小时。 然后，用 PBS/Triton X-100 洗涤 3 次（每次 5-10 分钟）。</li>
	<li>滴一滴 DAPI 封固剂以标记细胞核，然后用盖玻片覆盖载玻片。放置盖玻片时避免气泡。</li>
	<li>使用荧光显微镜检查载玻片并捕获图像（参见 材料表）。 注:用 ex/em 359/461 处的 DAPI 以 10 倍放大倍率定位细胞以定位细胞;更高的放大倍数可以捕获细胞。其他波长将取决于所选颜色。绿色 （GFP） - ex/em 488/510。红色 （Cy3）- ex/em 555/569。</li>

我们实验室先前记录了从小鼠中分离出原代视网膜色素上皮 （RPE）。本手稿描述了原代 Müller 细胞分离的详细演示方案。该程序包括从小鼠眼睛中分离的 Müller 细胞的摘除、处理、解剖、收集、接种、培养和表征。它基于先前在早期出版物中发现的成功方案以及我们在最近出版物中使用的修改后的方案1， 2,13.虽然步骤很简单，但成功...

Müller 细胞 （MCs） 是在视网膜组织中发现的主要和最丰富的神经胶质细胞。它们是在视网膜内提供结构完整性和代谢功能的关键参与者1。MC 的战略结构分布在整个视网膜厚度上，从而为视网膜提供支持。除了支架状特性外，它们还具有视网膜神经元的代谢功能，为它们提供能量底物，包括葡萄糖和乳酸。这些功能对于维持健康的神经元功能至关重要。据报道，受损的 MC 会导致各种视网膜疾病，包括年龄相关性黄斑变性、糖尿病性视网膜病变和青光眼 2,3。MC 可以是视网膜再生治疗的内源性细胞来源1。它们也构成了视网膜的很大一部分，强有力的证据表明，在几个物种中，这些细胞可以被刺激以替代缺失的神经元2。它们与神经元有益地合作，圆锥形分支的 Müller 细胞末端密集地展开血管并连接视网膜的神经成分。为了维持神经元发育和神经元可塑性，Müller 细胞充当神经元的软基质，保护它们免受机械损伤3。此外，在病理情况下，Müller 细胞可能会分化为神经祖细胞或干细胞，复制或再生丢失的光感受器和神经元 2,3,4。Müller 细胞保留了视网膜干细胞的特性，包括不同程度的自我更新和分化潜力 5,6。Müller 神经胶质细胞具有重要的视网膜谱系，可产生神经营养因子、摄取和回收神经递质、在空间上缓冲离子并维持血视网膜屏障，以保持视网膜处于体内平衡 7,8,9。这凸显了 Müller 细胞作为治疗视网膜变性相关疾病的细胞疗法中一种有前途的工具的潜力。Müller 细胞是分布在整个视网膜中的原代神经胶质细胞，与神经元和血管相连。它们起着至关重要的保护作用，提供必要的结构和代谢支持，以维持视网膜细胞的活力和稳定性。遗憾的是，在文献中发现的从视网膜中分离原代 Müller 细胞的方案很少 10,11。
我们提出了一种可靠的分离和培养小鼠原代 Müller 细胞的增强方法。我们小组使用该方案从野生型 C57BL/6 小鼠和转基因小鼠中分离 Müller 细胞12,13。年龄在 5 至 11 天之间，无性别偏好的小鼠用于该方案。细胞已传代多达 4 次;然而，在 P4 时，它们不再粘附在培养瓶上，因此很难培养出健康的培养物。培养物通常被视网膜色素上皮 （RPE） 细胞污染，因此在对细胞系进行任何其他实验之前，细胞应至少传代一次。传代允许进一步分离污染物。因此，提出的方案提供了一种快速有效的方法来分离小鼠 Müller 细胞，然后可以将其用作研究治疗靶点和评估视网膜疾病潜在治疗方法的可靠平台14。

isolation of primary mouse retinal glial m&#252;ller cells

视网膜的主要支持细胞是视网膜神经胶质 Müller 细胞。它们覆盖整个视网膜表面，并且靠近视网膜血管和视网膜神经元。由于它们的生长，Müller 细胞在健康的视网膜中执行几项关键任务，包括神经递质、视黄酸化合物和离子（如钾 K+）的摄取和回收。除了调节血液流动和维持血视网膜屏障外，它们还调节新陈代谢和视网膜的营养供应。本手稿介绍了分离原代小鼠 Müller 细胞的既定程序。为了更好地了解各种眼部疾病小鼠模型所涉及的潜在分子过程，Müller 细胞分离是一种很好的方法。本手稿概述了从小鼠中分离 Müller 细胞的详细程序。从去核到播种，整个过程持续大约几个小时。接种后 5-7 天内，不应更换培养基，以使分离的细胞不受阻碍地生长。接下来使用形态学和不同的免疫荧光标记物进行细胞表征。细胞的最大传代次数为 3-4 次。

验证分离的 Müller 细胞的特异性、纯度和屏障功能 为了确认分离的 Müller 细胞的活力、形态和独特品质，在光学显微镜下检查了这些细胞。记录 P0 和 P1 图像（图 1A）。为了检查分离的 Müller 细胞是否受到 RPE 细胞的污染并确认其纯度，使用对 RPE 细胞标志物 RPE65 具有特异性的抗体进行免疫荧光染色 （IF）。人视网膜色素细胞 （ARPE -19） 用作阳性对照。RPE65 ?...

Isolation of Primary Murine Retinal Ganglion Cells (RGCs) by Flow Cytometry

Neurodegenerative diseases often have a devastating impact on those affected. Retinal ganglion cell (RGC) loss is implicated in an array of diseases, including diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma, in addition to normal aging. Despite their importance, RGCs have been extremely difficult to study until now due in part to the fact that they comprise only a small percentage of the wide variety of cells in the retina. In addition, current isolation methods use intracellular markers to identify RGCs, which produce non-viable cells. These techniques also involve lengthy isolation protocols, so there is a lack of practical, standardized, and dependable methods to obtain and isolate RGCs. This work describes an efficient, comprehensive, and reliable method to isolate primary RGCs from mice retinae using a protocol based on both positive and negative selection criteria. The presented methods allow for the future study of RGCs, with the goal of better understanding the major decline in visual acuity that results from the loss of functional RGCs in neurodegenerative diseases.

Isolation of Primary Murine Retinal Ganglion Cells RGCs by Flow Cytometry

Millions of people suffer from retinal degenerative diseases that result in irreversible blindness. A common element of many of these diseases is the loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). This detailed protocol describes the isolation of primary murine RGCs by positive and negative selection with flow cytometry.

Isolation of Retinal Stem Cells from the Mouse Eye

The adult mouse retinal stem cell (RSC) is a rare quiescent cell found within the ciliary epithelium (CE) of the mammalian eye1,2,3. The CE is made up of non-pigmented inner and pigmented outer cell layers, and the clonal RSC colonies that arise from a single pigmented cell from the CE are made up of both pigmented and non-pigmented cells which can be differentiated to form all the cell types of the neural retina and the RPE. There is some controversy about whether all the cells within the spheres all contain at least some pigment4; however the cells are still capable of forming the different cell types found within the neural retina1-3. In some species, such as amphibians and fish, their eyes are capable of regeneration after injury5, however; the mammalian eye shows no such regenerative properties. We seek to identify the stem cell in vivo and to understand the mechanisms that keep the mammalian retinal stem cells quiescent6-8, even after injury as well as using them as a potential source of cells to help repair physical or genetic models of eye injury through transplantation9-12. Here we describe how to isolate the ciliary epithelial cells from the mouse eye and grow them in culture in order to form the clonal retinal stem cell spheres. Since there are no known markers of the stem cell in vivo, these spheres are the only known way to prospectively identify the stem cell population within the ciliary epithelium of the eye.

In this video, we will demonstrate how to isolate retinal stem cells from the ciliary epithelium of the mouse eye and grow them in culture to form clonal retinal spheres. The spheres that are isolated possess the cardinal properties of stem cells: self-renewal and multipotentiality.

Primary Cell Cultures to Study the Regeneration Potential of Murine M&#252;ller Glia after MicroRNA Treatment

M&#252;ller glia (MG) are the predominant glia in the neural retina and can function as a regenerative source for retinal neurons. In lower vertebrates such as fish, MG-driven regeneration occurs naturally; in mammals, however, stimulation with certain factors or genetic/epigenetic manipulation is required. Since MG comprise only 5% of the retinal cell population, there is a need for model systems that allow the study of this cell population exclusively. One of these model systems is primary MG cultures that are reproducible and can be used for a variety of applications, including molecule/factor screening and identification, testing of compounds or factors, cell monitoring, and/or functional tests. This model is used to study the potential of murine MG to convert into retinal neurons after supplementation or inhibition of microRNAs (miRNAs) via transfection of artificial miRNAs or their inhibitors. The use of MG-specific reporter mice in combination with immunofluorescent labeling and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) confirmed that 80%-90% of the cells found in these cultures are MG. Using this model, it was discovered that miRNAs can reprogram MG into retinal progenitor cells (RPCs), which subsequently differentiate into neuronal-like cells. The advantages of this technique are that miRNA candidates can be tested for their efficiency and outcome before their usage in in vivo applications.

M&#252;ller glia primary cultures obtained from mouse retinas represent a very robust and reliable tool to study the glial conversion into retinal progenitor cells after microRNA treatment. Single molecules or combinations can be tested before their subsequent application of in vivo approaches.

Characterization and Isolation of Mouse Primary Microglia by Density Gradient Centrifugation

Microglia, the resident immune cells in the brain, are the first responders to inflammation or injury in the central nervous system. Recent research has revealed microglia to be dynamic, capable of assuming both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory phenotypes. Both M1 (pro-inflammatory) and M2 (pro-reparative) phenotypes play an important role in neuroinflammatory conditions such as perinatal brain injury, and exhibit differing functions in response to certain environmental stimuli. The modulation of microglial activation has been noted to confer neuroprotection thus suggesting microglia may have therapeutic potential in brain injury. However, more research is required to better understand the role of microglia in disease, and this protocol facilitates that. The protocol described below combines a density gradient centrifugation process to reduce cellular debris, with magnetic separation, producing a highly pure sample of primary microglial cells that can be used for in vitro experimentation, without the need for 2-3 weeks culturing. Additionally, the characterization steps yield robust functional data about microglia, aiding studies to better our understanding of the polarization and priming of these cells, which has strong implications in the field of regenerative medicine.

A protocol for the isolation of primary microglia from murine brains is presented. This technique aids in furthering the current understanding of neurological conditions. Density gradient centrifugation and magnetic separation are combined to produce sufficient yield of a highly pure sample. Furthermore, we outline the steps for characterization of microglia.

Isolation of Mouse Primary Microglia by Magnetic-Activated Cell Sorting in Animal Models of Demyelination

Microglia, the resident innate immune cells in the brain, are the primary responders to inflammation or injury in the central nervous system (CNS). Microglia can be divided into resting state and activated state and can rapidly change state in response to the microenvironment of the brain. Microglia will be activated under different pathological conditions and exhibit different phenotypes. In addition, there are many different subgroups of activated microglia and great heterogeneity between different subgroups. The heterogeneity mainly depends on the molecular specificity of microglia. Studies have revealed that microglia will be activated and play an important role in the pathological process of inflammatory demyelination. To better understand the characteristics of microglia in inflammatory demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder, we propose a perilesional primary microglial sorting protocol. This protocol utilizes columnar magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) to obtain highly purified primary microglia and preserve the molecular characteristics of microglia to investigate the potential effects of microglia in inflammatory demyelinating diseases.

Here, we present a protocol to isolate and purify primary microglia in animal models of demyelinating diseases, utilizing columnar magnetic-activated cell sorting.

培养的原代鼠 RPE 的表征和形态动力学

A Simplified Method for Isolation and Culture of Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells from Adult Mice

Retinal pigment epithelial cells (RPE) are critical for the proper function of the retina. RPE dysfunction is involved in the pathogenesis of important retinal diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, and diabetic retinopathy. We present a streamlined approach for the isolation of RPE from murine adult eyes. In contrast to previously reported methods, this approach enables the isolation and culture of highly pure RPE from adult mice. This simple and fast method does not require extensive technical skill and is achievable with basic scientific tools and reagents. Primary RPE are isolated from C57BL/6 background mice aged 3- to 14-weeks by enucleation of the eye followed by the removal of the anterior segment. Enzymatic trypsinization and centrifugation are used to dissociate and isolate the RPE from the eyecup. In conclusion, this approach offers a quick and effective protocol for the utilization of RPE in the study of retinal function and disease.

Primary Cell Cultures from the Mouse Retinal Pigment Epithelium

The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a highly polarized multi-functional epithelium that is located between the neural retina and the choroid of the eye. It is a single sheet of pigmented cells that are hexagonally packed and connected by tight junctions. The main functions of the RPE include absorption of light, phagocytosis of the shed photoreceptor outer segments, spatial buffering of ions, transport of nutrients, ions and water as well as active involvement in the visual cycle. With such important and diverse functions, it is critically important to study the biology of RPE cells. A number of RPE cell lines have been established; however, passaged and immortalized cells are known to quickly lose some of the morphological and physiological characteristics of natural RPE cells. Thus, primary cells are more suitable for studying different aspects of RPE cell biology and function. Mouse primary RPE cell culture is very useful to researchers since mouse models are widely used in biological studies, however collecting RPE cells from mouse is also very challenging due to their small size. Here, we present a protocol for establishing primary mouse RPE cell cultures which includes enucleation and dissection of the eyes and isolation of the RPE sheets to yield the cells for culturing. This method enables efficient cell recovery. The RPE cells obtained from two mice&#160;can reach confluency on one 12 mm polyester membrane insert pre-loaded in culture plate after one week of culture and display some of the original properties of bona fide RPE cells such as hexagonal shape and pigmentation after two weeks of culture.

The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is a multi-functional epithelium of the eye. Here we present a protocol to establish primary cell cultures derived from the murine RPE.

Isolation of Enteric Glial Cells from the Submucosa and Lamina Propria of the Adult Mouse

The enteric nervous system (ENS) consists of neurons and enteric glial cells (EGCs) that reside within the smooth muscle wall, submucosa and lamina propria. EGCs play important roles in gut homeostasis through the release of various trophic factors and contribute to the integrity of the epithelial barrier. Most studies of primary enteric glial cultures use cells isolated from the myenteric plexus after enzymatic dissociation. Here, a non-enzymatic method to isolate and culture EGCs from the intestinal submucosa and lamina propria is described. After manual removal of the longitudinal muscle layer, EGCs were liberated from the lamina propria and submucosa using sequential HEPES-buffered EDTA incubations followed by incubation in commercially available non-enzymatic cell recovery solution. The EDTA incubations were sufficient to strip most of the epithelial mucosa from the lamina propria, allowing the cell recovery solution to liberate the submucosal EGCs. Any residual lamina propria and smooth muscle was discarded along with the myenteric glia. EGCs were easily identified by their ability to express glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). Only about 50% of the cell suspension contained GFAP+ cells after completing tissue incubations and prior to plating on the poly-D-lysine/laminin substrate. However, after 3 days of culturing the cells in glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF)-containing culture media, the cell population adhering to the substrate-coated plates comprised of &#62;95% enteric glia. We created a hybrid mouse line by breeding a hGFAP-Cre mouse to the ROSA-tdTomato reporter line to track the percentage of GFAP+ cells using endogenous cell fluorescence. Thus, non-myenteric enteric glia can be isolated by non-enzymatic methods and cultured for at least 5 days.

Here, we describe the isolation of enteric-glial cells from the intestinal-submucosa using sequential EDTA incubations to chelate divalent cations and then incubation in non-enzymatic cell recovery solution. Plating the resultant cell suspension on poly-D-lysine and laminin results in a highly enriched culture of submucosal glial cells for functional analysis.
