The present invention relates to methods for preparing in vitro models of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.

The invention relates to purified, tissue-specific progenitors, methods of making and using such tissue-specific progenitors.

Cell culture systems and methods provide improved immunotherapeutic product manufacturing with greater scalability, flexibility, and automation. Cell culture systems are configured with interchangeable cartridges, allowing versatility and scalability. Systems are configured to have multiple connected cell culture chambers, which allows parallel processing of different types of cells. Gas-impermeable cell culture chambers and methods for generating cells in closed systems prevent contamination and user error. Methods for recycling cell culture medium provide additional efficiencies.

The present invention relates to a culture vessel for three-dimensional cell cultivation and a three-dimensional cell co-cultivation method using the same. The culture vessel comprises a well formed by a column positioned thereon and at least one support protruding from the column within the well. In contrast to conventional techniques, the present invention allows cells to be cultured at a position spaced from a culture vessel, thus enjoying the advantage of smoothly supplying oxygen necessary for three-dimensional cell culture structures.

An in vitro method of expanding γδ T cells includes isolating γδ T cells from a blood sample of a human subject, activating the isolated γδ T cells in the presence of an aminobisphosphonate and/or a feeder cell and at least one cytokine, expanding the activated γδ T cells, and optionally restimulating the expanded γδ T cells.
