Vascularization in 3D Cell Culture

2021
The two-dimensional (2D) monoculture does not recapitulate the three-dimensional (3D) environment of in vivo vasculature. Endothelial cell (ECs) spheroids have been introduced as a 3D in vitro model exhibiting angiogenic responses and sprouting behavior in vivo.

Mucus-producing 3D cell culture models

Advanced Drug Delivery Reviews, 2021
In vitro cell-based models have been used for a long time since they are normally easily obtained and have an advantageous cost-benefit. Besides, they can serve a variety of ends, from studying drug absorption and metabolism to disease modeling. However, some in vitro models are too simplistic, not accurately representing the living tissues.

3D Cell Culture: An Introduction

2017
3D cell culture is an invaluable tool in developmental, cell, and cancer biology. By mimicking crucial features of in vivo environment, including cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix interactions, 3D cell culture enables proper structural architecture and differentiated function of normal tissues or tumors in vitro.

Culturing Cells in 2D and 3D

2020
In this chapter, we go over the main principles and protocols that enable to keep cells and tissues alive in an in vitro environment. This process is called “cell culturing” and can be used for both isolated cells and small tissue constructs. After touching upon main terms such as primary, secondary, continuous, and finite cell lines, we focus on ...

Injectable thermogel for 3D culture of stem cells

Biomaterials, 2018
Thermogel is an aqueous polymer solution that undergoes sol-to-gel transition as the temperature increases. Cells, growth factors, and signaling molecules can be incorporated simultaneously during the sol-to-gel transition. The cytocompatible procedure makes the thermogel an excellent platform for 3D culture of stem cells.

3D Cell Culture Systems: Advantages and Applications

Journal of Cellular Physiology, 2014
Cell cultures are important material of study for the variety of advantages that they offer. Both established continuous cell lines and primary cell cultures continue to be invaluable for basic research and for direct applications. Technological advancements are necessary to address emerging complex challenges and the way cells are cultured in vitro is

3D Cell Culture Models

2017
In the 1960s, scientists searching for a cell-based system that would reflect the physiology and heterogeneity of solid tumors in a well-controlled experimental setting developed multicell spheroid cultures. Early studies focused on the biology, physiology, and drug and radiation response of spheroids.

Nanoimprinting of Topographical and 3D Cell Culture Scaffolds

Nanomedicine, 2014
The extracellular matrix exhibits several nanostructures such as fibers, filaments, nanopores and ridges that can be mimicked by topographical and 3D substrates for cell and tissue cultures for an environment closer to in vivo conditions. This review summarizes and discusses a growing number of reports employing nanoimprint lithography to obtain such ...
