Scaffold-free three-dimensional cell culture utilizing micromolded nonadhesive hydrogels.
Techniques that allow cells to self-assemble into three-dimensional (3-D) spheroid microtissues provide powerful in vitro models that are becoming increasingly popular--especially in fields such as stem cell research, tissue engineering, and cancer biology. Unfortunately, caveats involving scale, expense, geometry, and practicality have hindered the widespread adoption of these techniques. We p...
متن کاملThermosensitive polymeric matrices for three-dimensional cell culture strategies.
A completely new strategy for cell culture focusing on the design of three-dimensional (3D) smart surfaces by supercritical fluid technology has been developed. This approach might overcome the limitations on cell expansion and proliferation of currently existing techniques. An alternative technology, based on supercritical carbon dioxide, was used to polymerize poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNI...
متن کاملThree-dimensional cell culture matrices: state of the art.
Traditional methods of cell growth and manipulation on 2-dimensional (2D) surfaces have been shown to be insufficient for new challenges of cell biology and biochemistry, as well as in pharmaceutical assays. Advances in materials chemistry, materials fabrication and processing technologies, and developmental biology have led to the design of 3D cell culture matrices that better represent the ge...
متن کاملTunable Hydrogels from Pulmonary Extracellular Matrix for 3D Cell Culture.
Here we present a method for establishing multiple component cell culture hydrogels for in vitro lung cell culture. Beginning with healthy en bloc lung tissue from porcine, rat, or mouse, the tissue is perfused and submerged in subsequent chemical detergents to remove the cellular debris. Histological comparison of the tissue before and after processing confirms removal of over 95% of double st...
متن کاملSynthetically Tractable Click Hydrogels for Three-Dimensional Cell Culture Formed Using Tetrazine–Norbornene Chemistry
The implementation of bio-orthogonal click chemistries is a topic of growing importance in the field of biomaterials, as it is enabling the development of increasingly complex hydrogel materials capable of providing dynamic, cell-instructive microenvironments. Here, we introduce the tetrazine-norbornene inverse electron demand Diels-Alder reaction as a new cross-linking chemistry for the format...
