The protocol described above outlines a method to produce identical epithelial tissues of pre-defined shape, enabling spatial control of the mechanical stress experienced by cells in the tissue. An elastomeric mold is used to create cavities in type I collagen that are then filled with epithelial cells and covered with an additional collagen layer such that cells are completely encapsulated in a 3D collagen matrix environment.

支上皮组织，称为分支形态的发展，是由细胞衍生的，物理的和环境因素调节。在乳腺，分支形态是通过该引导集体细胞迁移创建树形结构一个迭代过程。第一步是从乳管主芽的形成，其次是分支起始和延长1,2。分支的侵入周围基质是由类固醇激素在青春期的全身性释放诱导。新的主芽，然后从现有分行的两端发起，而这个过程继续创造上皮树3。虽然许多重要的生化信号已经确定，指导这个复杂的发展过程，目前缺乏细胞生物学机制的全面了解。此外，在特定的线索的影响机理研究难以从experi解构体内 ments，因为精确时空扰动和测量常常是不可能的。 三维（3D）培养技术，例如全器官培养，主要类器官和细胞培养模型，是系统地研究组织形态4-6的基本机制的有用工具。这些可以用于确定特定因素的影响单独，例如机械力和生化信号，对各种细胞的行为，包括迁移，增殖和分化的是特别有用的。6工程化细胞培养模型，特别是容易使扰动的单个细胞和它们的微环境。 一个这样的养殖模式使用基于微细加工的方法来工程师控制的三维结构模型的乳腺上皮组织在与一个感应一贯和可重复形成集体迁移分支机构ppropriate生长因子。模型的主要优点是能够精确地操纵和测量的物理和生化因素，如机械应力的模式，具有很高的统计置信的影响的能力。该技术中，用计算模型一起，已经被用来确定物理和生化信号的乳腺上皮组织和其它支上皮7-11的正常发展的指导的相对贡献。这里介绍的是用于构建这些模型的组织，它可以被容易地扩展到其它类型的细胞和细胞外基质（ECM）凝胶的详细协议，其用作治疗剂的测试的潜在工具。

engineering three-dimensional epithelial tissues embedded within extracellular matrix

The architecture of branched organs such as the lungs, kidneys, and mammary glands arises through the developmental process of branching morphogenesis, which is regulated by a variety of soluble and physical signals in the microenvironment. Described here is a method created to study the process of branching morphogenesis by forming engineered three-dimensional (3D) epithelial tissues of defined shape and size that are completely embedded within an extracellular matrix (ECM). This method enables the formation of arrays of identical tissues and enables the control of a variety of environmental factors, including tissue geometry, spacing, and ECM composition. This method can also be combined with widely used techniques such as traction force microscopy (TFM) to gain more information about the interactions between cells and their surrounding ECM. The protocol can be used to investigate a variety of cell and tissue processes beyond branching morphogenesis, including cancer invasion.
