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. Further culture of these tissues and treatment with growth factors to induce branching from the...

Lo sviluppo dei tessuti epiteliali ramificati, noto come ramificazione morfogenesi, è regolata da, e fattori ambientali fisici derivati ​​dalle cellule. Nella ghiandola mammaria, branching morfogenesi è un processo iterativo attraverso il quale guidata migrazione cellulare collettiva crea un&#39;architettura ad albero. Il primo passo è la formazione gemma primaria dai condotti del latte, seguita da iniziazione ramo e l&#39;allungamento 1,2. Invasione delle filiali in stroma circostante è indotta dal rilascio sistemico di ormoni steroidei alla pubertà. Nuovi germogli primarie poi iniziano dalle estremità dei rami esistenti, e questo processo continua a creare un albero epiteliale 3. Anche se molti importanti segnali biochimici sono state identificate, una comprensione globale dei meccanismi cellulari biologici che guidano questo complesso processo di sviluppo è attualmente carente. Inoltre, gli studi meccanicistici sulle influenze dei segnali specifici sono difficili da decostruire da esperimentimenti in vivo, come precisi perturbazioni spazio-temporali e misure spesso non sono possibili. Tridimensionali (3D) le tecniche di coltura, quali la cultura tutto l&#39;organo, organoidi primarie, e modelli di coltura cellulare, sono strumenti utili per indagare in modo sistematico i meccanismi alla base del tessuto morfogenesi 4-6. Questi possono essere particolarmente utile per determinare le influenze di fattori specifici singolarmente, ad esempio forze meccaniche e segnali biochimici, su una varietà di comportamenti cellulari, compresa la migrazione, la proliferazione e la differenziazione. 6 modelli di coltura cellulare Engineered, in particolare, facilmente abilitare la perturbazione delle singole cellule e loro microambiente. Un tale modello di coltura utilizza un approccio microfabbricazione-based per ingegnerizzare modello tessuti epiteliali mammarie con struttura 3D controllato che in modo coerente e riproducibile formano rami che migrano collettivamente quando indotto con l&#39;unafattori di crescita ppropriate. Il principale vantaggio del modello è la capacità di manipolare e misurare gli effetti di fattori fisici e biochimici, come modelli di stress meccanico, con elevata affidabilità statistica precisione. Questa tecnica, insieme alla modellizzazione computazionale, è già stato utilizzato per determinare il contributo relativo di segnali fisici e biochimici nel guida del normale sviluppo dei tessuti epiteliali mammarie e di altri epiteli ramificati 7-11. Qui presentato è un protocollo dettagliato per la costruzione di questi tessuti modello, che possono essere facilmente estese ad altri tipi di cellule e della matrice extracellulare (ECM) gel, e che serve come un potenziale strumento per il test di terapie.

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.
