A Fast and Accessible Methodology for Micro-Patterning Cells on Standard Culture Substrates Using Parafilm™ Inserts
Micropatterning techniques provide direct control over the spatial organization of cells at the sub-mm scale. Regulation of these spatial parameters is important for controlling cell fate and cell function. While micropatterning has proved a powerful technique for understanding the impact of cell organization on cell behaviour, current methods for micropatterning cells require complex, speciali...
متن کاملPatterning stem cell differentiation.
Regulation of cell differentiation and assembly remains a fundamental question in developmental biology. Now, a report from the Chen laboratory (Ruiz and Chen, 2008) describes an approach that represents a major step toward a more profound understanding of the geometric-force control of stem cell differentiation.
متن کاملCell-cell contact area affects Notch signaling and Notch-dependent patterning
During development, cells undergo dramatic changes in their morphology. By affecting contact geometry, these morphological changes could influence cellular communication. However, it has remained unclear whether and how signaling depends on contact geometry. This question is particularly relevant for Notch signaling, which coordinates neighboring cell fates through direct cell-cell signaling. U...
متن کاملActin is involved in auxin-dependent patterning.
Polar transport of auxin has been identified as a central element of pattern formation. The polarity of auxin transport is linked to the cycling of pin-formed proteins, a process that is related to actomyosin-dependent vesicle traffic. To get insight into the role of actin for auxin transport, we used patterned cell division to monitor the polarity of auxin fluxes. We show that cell division in...
متن کاملDiffusion neutral and diffusion dependent patterning
In this paper a connection between reaction-diffusion systems with small diffusion coefficients and the corresponding shorted systems (where diffusion is removed) is investigated. We obtain new sufficient conditions showing when solutions are completely defined by the corresponding shorted system and when, in contrast to this, pattern formation depends on diffusion. We call the two situations, ...
