Quantitative investigation of calcimimetic R568 on beta cell adhesion and mechanics using AFM single-cell force spectroscopy.
In this study we use a novel approach to quantitatively investigate mechanical and interfacial properties of clonal β-cells using AFM-Single Cell Force Spectroscopy (SCFS). MIN6 cells were incubated for 48 h with 0.5 mM Ca(2+) ± the calcimimetic R568 (1 μM). AFM-SCFS adhesion and indentation experiments were performed by using modified tipless cantilevers. Hertz contact model was applied to ana...
متن کاملFunctional Group Imaging by Adhesion AFM Applied to Lipid Monolayers
Recently developed adhesion atomic force microscopy was used as a technique to map the spatial arrangement of chemical functional groups at a surface with a lateral resolution of 20 nm. The ratio of the adhesion forces for different functional groups can be compared with values determined from the known surface energies. This concept was demonstrated by mapping the adhesive interaction of domai...
متن کاملQuantitative analysis of cell adhesion on aligned micro- and nanofibers.
In this study, we quantitatively analyzed the affinity of cell adhesion to aligned nanofibers composed of composites of poly(glycolic acid) (PGA) and collagen. Electrospun composite fibers were fabricated at various PGA/collagen weight mixing ratio (7, 18, 40, 67, and 86%) to generate fibers that ranged in diameter from 10 mum to 500 nm. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observation revealed t...
متن کاملQuantitative Modeling and Measurement of Copper Thin Film Adhesion
Numerous mechanisms have been identified as fundamental to the adhesion of thin metallic films. The primary mechanism is the thermodynamic work of adhesion of the interface, which in its most basic description is the difference between the surface energies of the two materials and that of the interface. This quantity is often described as leveraging the contributions of other mechanisms. One of...
متن کاملMeasurement of cellular excitability by whole cell patch clamp technique.
Patch clamp method developed more than 30 years ago is widely used for investigation of cellular excitability manifested as transmembrane ionic current and/or generation of action potentials. This technique could be applied to measurement of ionic currents flowing through individual (single) ion channels or through the whole assembly of ion channels expressed in the whole cell. Whole cell confi...
