Research Abstract |
Cryopreservation and rewarming of feline kidney cells with an existing intracellular and extracellular organ preservation solution added C16-Yamamarin, an insect derived dormancy peptide, was indicated dormancy effects of C16-Yamamarin to the feline kidney cells which were reversible. Although the organ preservation effects of C16-Yamamarin were not provided in this study, it may suggest the possibility of the application of C16-Yamamarin as an organ preservative.
