Tracking lineages of single cells in lines using a microfluidic device.
Cells within a genetically identical population exhibit phenotypic variation that in some cases can persist across multiple generations. However, information about the temporal variation and familial dependence of protein levels remains hidden when studying the population as an ensemble. To correlate phenotypes with the age and genealogy of single cells over time, we developed a microfluidic de...
متن کاملMolecular phenotyping of aging in single yeast cells using a novel microfluidic device.
Budding yeast has served as an important model organism for aging research, and previous genetic studies have led to the discovery of conserved genes/pathways that regulate lifespan across species. However, the molecular causes of aging and death remain elusive, because it is very difficult to directly observe the cellular and molecular events accompanying aging in single yeast cells by the tra...
متن کاملCapture and enumeration of mRNA transcripts from single cells using a microfluidic device.
Accurate measurement of RNA transcripts from single cells will enable the precise classification of cell types and characterization of the heterogeneity in cell populations that play key roles in normal cellular physiology and diseases. As a step towards this end, we have developed a microfluidic device and methods for automatic hydrodynamic capture of single mammalian cells and subsequent immo...
متن کاملClassification of cell types using a microfluidic device for mechanical and electrical measurement on single cells.
This paper presents a microfluidic system for cell type classification using mechanical and electrical measurements on single cells. Cells are aspirated continuously through a constriction channel with cell elongations and impedance profiles measured simultaneously. The cell transit time through the constriction channel and the impedance amplitude ratio are quantified as cell's mechanical and e...
متن کاملQuantitative control of mitochondria transfer between live single cells using a microfluidic device
Quantitative control of mitochondria transfer between live cells is a promising approach for genetic manipulation of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) because single mitochondrion transfer to a mtDNA-less (ρ0) cell potentially leads to homoplasmy of mtDNA. In this paper, we describe a method for quantitative control of mitochondria transfer between live single cells. For this purpose, we fabricated nov...
