In order for vital processes such as wound healing, immune responses, and embryonic development to occur, cell migration must take place. Cell migration involves the interaction between cells and neighboring cells, the extracellular matrix, and soluble chemical cues (attractants or repellants). As an example, in the process of wound healing, fibroblasts play an integral role in fibrogenesis and wound contraction, where the cells are recruited to the site of injury to synthesize collagen in order to form the extracellular matrix3. Numerous mechanisms behind the migration of fibroblasts to a wound site have been studied, and they include different mechanical, physical, electrical, and chemotactic factors4. Fibroblasts respond especially well to different concentration gradients of growth factors. These different growth factors work together to optimize tissue regeneration5. While observing the chemotactic response of fibroblasts to growth factor concentrations, one can study the pattern of directional migration of fibroblasts and how they orient themselves around physical obstacles in order to reach their destination. Therefore, the goals of this study were to first develop a system in which fibroblast growth could be tracked under guidance by physical barriers and to secondly model the growth of fibroblasts as they navigate through the system.
Currently, the Boyden chamber assay is the most widely used system to measure the migration of cells6. The Boyden chamber consists of a two-chamber multi-well plate where each well may contain medium with or without chemoattractants7. A filter membrane provides a porous interface between the two chambers in each well; this creates a barrier so that cells cannot pass through unless it is by active migration. Typically, for the Boyden chamber, a chemoattractant is added to the lower chamber, and the system is allowed to equilibrate to form a gradient between the upper and lower wells4. One problem with the Boyden chamber assay is that steep gradients end up forming along a single axis perpendicular with the surface of the membrane. This causes the difference in the chemoattractant concentration between the upper and lower wells to be a lower than what was originally expected. Due to this constraint, the Boyden chamber assay makes it hard to correlate specific cell responses with particular gradient characteristics, such as the slope and the concentration difference. Without these measurements, it is hard to study multi-gradient signal integration.
To address some of the constraints of the traditional Boyden chamber assay, microfluidic assays have been developed to form customizable concentration gradients1. Standard methods for creating microfluidic systems require clean rooms for lithographic techniques. These techniques can be difficult to learn especially in a standard classroom setting. Thus, we have designed a chamber system for measuring cell migration that can be made without using a clean room. Using our system, the wells of the assay can be adjusted to a preferred size, and a linear concentration gradient of customized slope can be produced. This allows for accurate measurement of chemotaxis from random movement. The design is an inexpensive and easy-to-use system to model cell growth in response to different chemical stimuli.

a customizable chamber for measuring cell migration

Миграция клеток является жизненно важной частью иммунных реакций, роста и заживления ран. Миграция клеток представляет собой сложный процесс , который включает в себя взаимодействие между клетками, внеклеточного матрикса, а также растворимых и нерастворимых химических факторов (например, хемоаттрактанты). Стандартные методы измерения миграции клеток, таких как камера анализа Бойденом, работы путем подсчета клеток по обе стороны от делителя. Эти методы просты в использовании; Тем не менее, они предлагают небольшую геометрическую модификацию для различных областей применения. В отличие от этого , микрофлюидальные устройства могут быть использованы для наблюдения миграции клеток с помощью настраиваемых градиентов концентрации растворимых факторов 1, 2. Однако способы получения анализов микрофлюидики на основе может быть трудно узнать. Здесь мы опишем простой способ для создания клеточных культур камеры для измерения миграции клеток в ответ на химические градиенты концентрации. Наши мобильные милиGration метод камера может создавать различные градиенты линейной концентрационной для изучения миграции клеток для различных применений. Этот метод является относительно простым в использовании и, как правило, осуществляется студентов. Микроканал камера была создана путем размещения акриловую вставку в виде окончательно микроканальной камеры хорошо в чашку Петри. После этого, поли (диметилсилоксан) (ПДМС), выливалась в верхней части вставки. ПДМС был затвердеть, а затем вставка была удалена. Это позволило для создания скважин в любой желаемой формы и размера. Клетки могут быть впоследствии добавлены в микроканальной камеры, и растворимые вещества могут быть добавлены к одной из скважин путем замачивания агарозы блок в желаемом агента. Агарозы блок добавляется в одну из лунок, и время покадровой изображения могут быть взяты из микроканальной камеры для того, чтобы количественно оценить миграцию клеток. Вариации этого метода могут быть сделаны для данного применения, что делает этот метод HIGHLY настраиваемый.
