Human Foreskin Fibroblast Cells (HFFC)

Human Foreskin Fibroblast Cells (HFFC) are derived from the fibroblastic tissue of neonatal foreskin. These cells are an essential tool in the study of human biology, particularly in research related to wound healing, skin biology, and cellular senescence. Fibroblasts play a critical role in the synthesis of the extracellular matrix and collagen, which are crucial components of the connective tissue. HFFC are often utilized in experiments exploring the mechanisms of skin development, dermal remodeling, and the cellular responses to various growth factors and cytokines. HFFC are characterized by their spindle-shaped morphology and their ability to proliferate rapidly in vitro, making them suitable for various experimental applications, including tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, and drug screening. These cells are also valuable in studies investigating the effects of UV radiation on skin cells, the pathophysiology of fibrotic diseases, and the aging process of skin. Due to their neonatal origin, HFFC are less likely to have accumulated mutations compared to adult fibroblasts, making them an ideal model for studying primary cellular functions.
