“…Previous studies have co-cultured senders and receiver cells at different ratios (ranging from 1:50 to 5:1), and for varying times (ranging from 10 minutes to several days) (Cho et al, 2018; Choe et al, 2021; He et al, 2017; Huang et al, 2020; Luo et al, 2019; Matsunaga et al, 2020; Morsut et al, 2016; Roybal et al, 2016; Sgodda et al, 2020; Srivastava et al, 2019; Toda et al, 2018; Toda et al, 2020; Wang et al, 2021; Yang et al, 2020). We analysed transgene induction in STC receiver cells at 11 different sender:receiver cell ratios (ranging from 1:19 to 9:1), and observed that higher proportions of sender cells in culture result in a higher proportion of receiver cells inducing mCherry.…”
