摘要

三维(3D)细胞培养具有更好地模拟天然组织特异性的优势,在药物开发、毒性测试和组织工程中发挥着重要作用。然而,现有的3D细胞培养的支架或微载体通常尺寸有限,并且在模拟生物体内血管复合体方面表现不佳。因此,本研究提出了一种通过简单的微流控方法制备的新型分级结构反蛋白石多孔支架,用于促进3D细胞共培养。该支架是基于微流控乳液液滴模板和惰性聚合物聚合的复合概念构建的。研究结果表明,该支架能够保证细胞培养过程中的营养供给,从而实现大面积的细胞培养。此外,通过在该支架中连续种植不同的细胞,本文还开发了内皮细胞包裹肝细胞的3D细胞共培养系统,用于构建功能化组织。研究结果表明,该支架用于细胞共培养系统,有助于维持肝细胞特定的体内功能。该分级结构反蛋白石多孔支架为3D细胞培养甚至仿生组织的构建奠定了基础。

Abstract

With the advantages of better mimicking the specificity of natural tissues, three-dimensional (3D) cell culture plays a major role in drug development, toxicity testing, and tissue engineering. However, existing scaffolds or microcarriers for 3D cell culture are often limited in size and show suboptimal performance in simulating the vascular complexes of living organisms. Therefore, we present a novel hierarchically inverse opal porous scaffold made via a simple microfluidic approach for promoting 3D cell co-culture techniques. The designed scaffold is constructed using a combined concept involving an emulsion droplet template and inert polymer polymerization. This work demonstrates that the resultant scaffolds ensure a sufficient supply of nutrients during cell culture, so as to achieve large-volume cell culture. In addition, by serially planting different cells in the scaffold, a 3D co-culture system of endothelial-cell-encapsulated hepatocytes can be developed for constructing certain functional tissues. It is also demonstrated that the use of the proposed scaffold for a co-culture system helps hepatocytes to maintain specific in vivo functions. These hierarchically inverse opal scaffolds lay the foundation for 3D cell culture and even the construction of biomimetic tissues.
