Chemically defined medium enhances bioelectric activity in mouse spinal cord-dorsal root ganglion cultures
1981
Abstract Co-cultures of mouse spinal cord with dorsal root ganglion (DRG) cultures were grown either in horse serum (HS)-supplemented medium or in a serum-free, chemically defined medium (CDM). The cytoarchitecture of cord-DRG explants was fully retained in CDM, with little or no distortion due to flattening of the explant, as is invariably observed in HS-supplemented cultures. Functional properties such as bioelectric activity and DRG-spinal cord interconnectivity were well sustained in CDM.
