Harvesting pre-polarized macrophages using thermo-responsive substrates
In the cell culture environment macrophages are highly adherent cells. Currently used methods to harvest macrophages have the disadvantage of reducing cell viability and their ability to re-attach after seeding. Although thermo-responsive surfaces have been employed to harvest cell sheets no reports are available to use these to harvest (pre-polarized) macrophages. We show that this method sign...
متن کاملAligned Cell Sheets Grown on Thermo-Responsive Substrates with Microcontact Printed Protein Patterns
Tissue structure is critical to tissue function. However, despite many recent advances in tissue engineering, recapitulation of native tissue structure remains a key challenge in the field. Traditionally, methods to mimic native tissue architecture require the use of artificial scaffolds, but ideally, engineered tissues would be made entirely of biological components. Cell sheet engineering tec...
متن کاملDoubly thermo-responsive copolymers in ionic liquid.
We report the behaviour of thermoresponsive block copolymers of n-butyl acrylate and N-alkyl acrylamides in [C2mim][NTf2]. Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) exhibits an upper critical solution temperature in [C2mim][NTf2] whereas poly(n-butyl acrylate) has a lower critical solution temperature. Consequently, these polymers exhibit double thermo-responsiveness correlated with the macromolecular struct...
متن کاملThermo-mechanically responsive crystalline organic cantilever.
We report thermo-mechanically responsive and thermochromic behavior in the single crystalline organic semiconductor butoxyphenyl N-substituted naphthalene diimide (BNDI). We show that initially monoclinic single crystals of BNDI undergo a single-crystal to single-crystal transition to a triclinic phase. This transition accompanies large changes in the crystal packing, a visible decrease in crys...
متن کاملReversible Self-Actuated Thermo-Responsive Pore Membrane
Smart membranes, which can selectively control the transfer of light, air, humidity and temperature, are important to achieve indoor climate regulation. Even though reversible self-actuation of smart membranes is desirable in large-scale, reversible self-regulation remains challenging. Specifically, reversible 100% opening/closing of pore actuation showing accurate responsiveness, reproducibili...
