CELL MATRIX INTERACTIONS WITH COLLAGEN-GAG MATRICES IN VITRO


Can provide insights into interrelationships among cell processes.
How do mitosis and synthesis interrelate? How do mitosis and synthesis relate to contraction? How does migration relate to contraction?

Can provide insights into cell behavior in vivo. Can provide insights into scaffold composition and structure for improved p p performance in regenerative medicine.

Mitosis Migration Synthesis Contraction

Fibroblasts Migrate Away from Soft Substrates


NIH 3T3 cells are plated on polyacrylamide substrates with a transition in flexibility. The soft side is marked with fluorescent beads (to the left). Cells turn to avoid the soft substrate as they approach the boundary from the stiff side, by retracting the leading lamellipodium that crossed the boundary.

Fibroblasts Migrate Toward Stiff Substrates


NIH 3T3 cells are plated on polyacrylamide substrates with a transition in flexibility. The soft side is marked with fluorescent beads (to the left). Cells turn toward and enter the stiff side as they approach the boundary from the soft side, by expanding protrusions toward the boundary into a leading lamellipodium.

C.-M. Lo, et al., Biophys. J. 79:144 (2000)

Fibroblasts Migrate Toward Stretching Forces


NIH 3T3 cells are plated on polyacrylamide substrates. Pulling forces are exerted by inserting a blunted needle in the substrate near the trailing end of the cell and dragging the needle away from the cell. Cells switch the direction of migration by expanding secondary protrusions toward the needle into a leading lamellipodium.

Fibroblasts Migrate Away from Compressing Forces


NIH 3T3 cells are plated on polyacrylamide substrates. Pushing forces are exerted by inserting a blunted needle in the substrate near the leading edge of an approaching cell and moving the needle toward the cell. Cells switch the direction of migration by retracting the leading lamellipodium.
