Does the constraint of the micropattern geometry change cell physiology in any way?
Cells can suffer if the micropattern size is too small. Once the optimal pattern size is found (see question 3), cells go through their cell division cycle at the usual pace. Check our publication list for additional information on assays already carried out on our micropatterns. Cells who need cell-cell contacts may also suffer on our current micropatterns. Contact us. We can offer custom made micropatterns for your special needs.
