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...

O desenvolvimento de tecidos epiteliais ramificada, conhecidos como ramificação morfogênese, é regulado por, e fatores ambientais físicas derivadas de células. Na glândula mamária, ramificação morfogênese é um processo iterativo pelo qual guiou a migração de células coletiva cria uma arquitetura de árvore. O primeiro passo é a formação de gemas primário dos canais de leite, seguido pela iniciação e alongamento ramo 1,2. Invasão de filiais no estroma circundante é induzida pela liberação sistêmica de hormônios esteróides na puberdade. Botões novos primários, em seguida, iniciar a partir das extremidades dos ramos existentes, e este processo continua a criar uma árvore epitelial 3. Embora muitos sinais bioquímicos importantes foram identificados, uma compreensão abrangente dos mecanismos celulares biológica que norteiam este processo de desenvolvimento complexo actualmente não existe. Além disso, estudos sobre os mecanismos sobre as influências das pistas específicas são difíceis de desconstruir a partir experimentos in vivo, perturbações e medições espaço-temporais como precisas muitas vezes não são possíveis. Tridimensionais técnicas de cultura (3D), como a cultura inteira órgão, Organóides primários, e os modelos de cultura de células, são ferramentas úteis para investigar sistematicamente os mecanismos subjacentes morfogênese do tecido 4-6. Estes podem ser particularmente úteis para determinar as influências de factores específicos individualmente, tais como as forças mecânicas e sinais bioquímicos, em uma variedade de comportamentos de células, incluindo migração, proliferação e diferenciação. 6 modelos de cultura de células modificadas geneticamente, em particular, facilmente permitir a perturbação de células individuais e o seu microambiente. Um tal modelo de cultura utiliza uma abordagem baseada em microfabricação para manipular tecidos epiteliais mamárias modelo 3D com estrutura controlada de modo consistente e reprodutível formam ramos que migram colectivamente quando induzida com o umfactores de crescimento ppropriate. A principal vantagem do modelo é a capacidade de manipular com precisão e medir os efeitos dos factores físicos e bioquímicos, tais como padrões de esforço mecânico, com alta confiança estatística. Esta técnica, em conjunto com a modelagem computacional, já foi usado para determinar as contribuições relativas de sinais físicos e bioquímicos na orientação do desenvolvimento normal dos tecidos epiteliais mamárias e outros epitélios ramificados 7-11. É apresentada aqui um protocolo detalhado para a construção destes tecidos modelo, que pode ser facilmente alargada a outros tipos de células e matriz extracelular (ECM) géis, e que serve como uma potencial ferramenta para o teste de agentes terapêuticos.

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.
