Controlled proliferation and screening of mammalian cells on a hydrogel-functionalized small molecule microarray.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A hydrogel-functionalized small molecule microarray has been developed, on which PC-3 cancer cells were selectively grown. Subsequent controlled release of immobilized bioactive compounds enabled cell-based screening to be directly carried out on this platform.

Cytotoxity Assessment of Gold Nanoparticle-Chitosan Hydrogel Nanocomposite as an Efficient Support for Cell Immobilization: toward Sensing Application
Cell-based biosensors have become a research hotspot in biosensors and bioelectronics fields. The main feature of cell-based biosensors is the immobilization of living cell on the surface of transducers. Different types of polymers which are used as scaffolds for cell growth should be biocompatible and have reactive functional groups for further attachment of biomolecules. In this work, the cel...
متن کاملLabel-Free Screening Small-Molecule Compound Libraries for Protein-Ligands Using a High-Throughput Optical Scanning Microscope
We describe a new oblique-incidence reflectivity difference (OI-RD) scanning microscope for high-throughput screening, in microarray format on functionalized glass slides, small-molecule compound libraries for protein ligands. The microscope employs a combination of scan mirror for y-scan and single-axis translation stage for x-scan. For a printed microarray with over 10,000 features, each of 1...
متن کاملMicroarrays of small molecules embedded in biodegradable polymers for use in mammalian cell-based screens.
We developed a microarray-based system for screening small molecules in mammalian cells. This system is compatible with image-based screens and requires fewer than 100 cells per compound. Each compound is impregnated in a 200-microm-diameter disc composed of biodegradable poly-(D),(L)-lactide/glycolide copolymer. Cells are seeded on top of these discs, and compounds slowly diffuse out, affectin...
متن کاملDisplacement and hybridization reactions in aptamer-functionalized hydrogels for biomimetic protein release and signal transduction.
A variety of hydrogels have been synthesized for controlling the release of signaling molecules in applications such as drug delivery and regenerative medicine. However, it remains challenging to synthesize hydrogels with the ability to control the release of signaling molecules sequentially or periodically under physiological conditions as living cells do in response to the variation of metabo...
متن کاملEnhanced Adipose Mesenchymal Stem Cells Proliferation by Carboxymethyl-Chitosan Functionalized Polycaprolactone Nanofiber
Background: Through combining two synthetic and natural polymers, scaffolds can be developed for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine purposes. Methods: In this work, carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC; 20%) was grafted to Polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers using the cold atmospheric plasma of helium. The PCL scaffolds were exposed to CAP, and functional groups were developed on the PCL surface...
