Different Types of Surface Modification used for Improving the Adhesion and Interactions of Skin Cells: OAJBS Publishers
Different Types of Surface Modification used for Improving the Adhesion and Interactions of Skin Cells by Anna Sobiepanek in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science
Mammalian
cells in the traditional 2D culture lack the complexity of 3D tissue
architecture as well as the cell-cell or cell-extracellular matrix (ECM)
interactions, which are present in the body. Still they are one of the most
accessible and popular models used in biomedical research. Simultaneously, the
understanding of various cell interactions in the body brings a valuable source
of knowledge for the continuous improvement of several research areas including
new biocompatible materials, tissue regeneration attempts, devices of the
Lab-on-a-Chip type or cell-based biosensors for different applications. In
order to meet the needs of cell culture improvement and a better understanding
of the physiological cell interactions, within years different cellular surface
modifications with biomolecules or chemicals have been introduced. These
modifications play an important role in the regulation of several processes in
cells such as adhesion, proliferation, differentiation, interaction and
signalling. In this review, we have described the typical surface modifications
used for the cell culture of different skin cells with a brief specification of
the mechanism of cell adhesion. The skin cells like keratinocytes, fibroblasts,
melanocytes, but also cancer cells (especially melanoma cells) are the perfect
models for studying adhesion mechanisms in vitro due to their mutual
physiological interaction in the skin tissue.
