ABSTRACT:
Hepatocytes spheroids can be formed by culturing hepatocytes in a culture vessel using a lipid-bound glycosaminoglycan as a culture substrate. Floating spheroids of hepatocytes can be obtained efficiently, which are capable of maintaining liver-specific functions and of keeping the spheroid form stably for a prolonged period of time.
