Hi,
Does anybody has an idea how to perform pharmacological long-term Notch stimulation in cell cultures? I want to stimulate Notch signaling in in vitro differentiated astrocytes for 1-2 weeks. I tried Jagged-1 attached to the poly-L-lysine coated TC plate, which many people use, but the effect on Hes5 epression after 2 weeks was quite low, so I think the Jagged-1 might not be stable long enough in the culture medium...
Thanks for suggestions.
Michael
