Fetal Bovine Serum Modulates Primary Human Cell Phenotypes, Endothelial Barrier Function, Vasculogenesis, and Angiogenesis in a Sex-Specific Manner
5 Sept 2025
Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Sex differences in cellular biology significantly influence cell responses in culture. Yet, the sex-specific effects of culture reagents such as fetal bovine serum (FBS) remain understudied. Increased adoption of cell-based models such as microphysiological systems (MPS) as replacements for animal models demands a greater understanding sex-specific responses to common media formulations. This study...
