Abstract

The objective of our research was to construct in vitro 3D nasal mucosa for further researches such as inducing nasal diseases and drugs screening. We simplified in vivo nasal mucosa into human primary nasal epithelial cell (hNEC), human microvascular endothelial cell (hMVEC) and extracellular matrix. Furthermore, we used an airway culture method because hNEC's conditions are better than previous liquid-covered culture method and more in vivo like[1]. We tried to find best conditions for co-culturing and to observe interaction between two cells. Finally, we constructed in vitro nasal mucosa model, and now we are going to use this model for drug screening.
