Microstructured Surfaces Cause Severe but Non-Detrimental Deformation of the Cell Nucleus

Edité par CCSD ; Wiley-VCH Verlag -

Surface features on the length scale of organelles allow their manipulation. Here, we present observations of an unexpected deformation of nuclei within cells growing on surfaces with micrometer‐sized pillars. Our results demonstrate that a microstructured surface can induce strong shape deformations in cells, without harmful consequences, and strongly suggest that these are limited to cancerous cells.

Topographically induced self-deformation of the nuclei of cells: dependence on cell type and proposed mechanisms

Archive ouverte | Davidson, Patricia M. | CCSD

Osteosarcoma-derived cell lines (SaOs-2, MG63) have recently been shown to deform their nucleus considerably in response to surface topography. Such a deformation had not been described previously. Here we present results on addit...

Definition of a simple statistical parameter for the quantification of orientation in two dimensions: Application to cells on grooves of nanometric depths

Contact guidance is generally evaluated by measuring the orientation angle of cells. However, statistical analyses are rarely performed on these parameters. Here we propose a statistical analysis based on a new parameter σ, the or...

Directing nuclear deformation on micropillared surfaces by substrate geometry and cytoskeleton organization

Archive ouverte | Badique, Florent | CCSD

We have recently demonstrated strong nuclear deformation of SaOs-2 osteosarcoma cells on poly-l-lactic acid (PLLA) micropillar substrates. In the present study, we first demonstrated that chemical and mechanical properties of the ...
