Collagen is the main component of connective tissue and is abundant in mammals. It is the most widely used extracellular matrix in 3D cell culture to promote cell attachment, growth, differentiation, migration and tissue morphogenesis.
In the 3D BBB model, collagen is used as the main component of the cell culture matrix to provide a support and attachment matrix for cells, thus supporting the simulation study of complex cell interactions and biological processes.
The 3D BBB model is a three-dimensional cell culture model that simulates the blood-brain barrier and is used to study related neurobiology and drug delivery issues. In order to reproduce real physiological conditions, the 3D BBB model uses a collagen matrix to culture brain vascular endothelial cells and other related cells to form a microenvironment with blood-brain barrier function. Collagen plays different roles when creating a three-dimensional blood-brain barrier (BBB) model culture matrix.
It is worth noting that the choice of collagen for the 3D BBB model culture matrix should be based on the specific requirements of the study and the desired matrix functionality. Furthermore, combining different types of collagen or using mixtures of collagen with other ECM components can further enhance the biomimetic properties and functionality of BBB model culture substrates.
Ace Therapeutics produces and supplies different types of collagen to help you construct an ideal, stable 3D BBB model in vitro that meets your research needs.

BBM-3C-031 | Human Collagen Type I, 0.1 mg |
Human Collagen Type I, 0.1 mg from Ace Therapeutics is purified from human placenta.
Type I collagen is found in connective tissues and is the major component of tensile strength of the extracellular matrix (ECM). The product is widely used as a thin layer on tissue-culture surfaces to enhance the attachment and proliferation of a variety of cells including endothelial cells, fibroblasts, hepatocytes, epithelial cells, etc. In addition, the product can self-assemble into a 3-D supramolecular gel in vitro as an ideal biological scaffold.

BBM-3C-033 | Human Collagen Type III, 0.1 mg |
Human Collagen Type III, 0.1 mg from Ace Therapeutics is purified from human cartilage.
Type III collagen is the second most abundant collagen in tissues and is found most commonly in tissues exhibiting elastic properties such as skin, lungs, intestinal walls, and walls of blood vessels, which resembles other fibrillar collagens in structure and function. Type III collagen together with type I collagen are the main constituents of the interstitial matrix.
