Human biospecimens provide valuable resources for investigating central and peripheral nervous system biology, elucidating mechanisms underlying neurological disorders, and advancing translational neuroscience research.
Human biospecimens for neurological and neuroscience research encompass a wide range of specimen types, from tissues, organs, and primary neural cells to DNA/RNA preparations and cerebrospinal fluid. Sample formats can be selected according to study requirements and may include fresh, frozen, FFPE, and other research-ready preparations.
Explore human biospecimens for neurology research and diverse experimental applications.
Human biospecimen sourcing includes brain tissue pieces and blocks, frozen neural tissue sections, and normal adult human brain samples for histology, molecular profiling, spatial analysis, and neuroscience research.
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) supports studies of neurodegeneration, neuroinflammation, brain injury, CNS tumors, and biomarker discovery. CSF samples enable analysis of proteins, metabolites, nucleic acids, and other soluble biomarkers associated with neurological disorders.
Human genomic DNA, RNA, and brain cDNA support gene expression analysis, qPCR, sequencing, SNP genotyping, methylation studies, transcript discovery, and molecular profiling of neurological tissues and cell models.
Human primary neural cells support in vitro studies of neuronal function, neuroinflammation, neurotoxicity, disease mechanisms, and drug responses, including human neurons, brain cells, neural stem cells, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, microglia,
Schwann cells, and other neural cell types.
