The siHBs were harvested using StemPro™ Accutase™ (Gibco, Waltham, MA, USA) and seeded onto collagen I-coated plates in Williams’E (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA), 10% FBS, 1% BSA. The medium was then replaced by a biliary differentiation medium (BDM) with 25 ng/mL Growth Hormone (GH, Peprotech, Cranbury, NJ, USA) and 25 ng/mL EGF, for two days. The medium was replaced daily by BDM with 5 ng/mL Interleukin-6 (IL6, Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany) for seven days and until the end of the differentiation with 10 ng/mL EGF. For 3D differentiation, siChols were harvested using Accutase, and 2 × 105 cells were suspended in 100 µL 50:50 Matrigel (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA) and BDM on cell culture inserts with 1 µm pore size.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
