Nearly 30 years ago, researchers were looking for a way to grow mouse sarcoma cells. The solution? The development of Corning Matrigel matrix. Matrigel is a solubilized basement membrane preparation extracted from the Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm (EHS) mouse sarcoma, a tumor rich in such ECM proteins as laminin (a major component), collagen IV, heparan sulfate proteoglycans, entactin/nidogen, and a number of growth factors.

Today, Matrigel, a natural ECM-based hydrogel is among the most widely used models for 2D and 3D cell culture in vitro. Corning matrigel hydrogel enables you to:

• Improve the attachment and differentiation of both normal and transformed anchorage-dependent epithelioid cells, as well as other cell types.
• Better mimic in vivo environments for 2D and 3D cell culture applications.
