Nanoscaled sea-island surfaces composed of thermoresponsive block copolymers were fabricated by the Langmuir-Schaefer method for controlling spontaneous cell adhesion and detachment. Both the preparation of the surface and the adhesion and detachment of cells on the surface were visualized.
Thermoresponsive poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PIPAAm)-immobilized surfaces for controlling cell adhesion and detachment were fabricated by the Langmuir-Schaefer method. Amphiphilic block copolymers composed of polystyrene and PIPAAm (St-IPAAms) were synthesized by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) radical polymerization. A chloroform solution of St-IPAAm molecules was gently dropped into a Langmuir-trough apparatus, and both barriers of the apparatus were moved horizontally to compress the film to regulate its density. Then, the St-IPAAm Langmuir film was horizontally transferred onto a hydrophobically modified glass substrate by a surface-fixed device. Atomic force microscopy images clearly revealed nanoscale sea-island structures on the surface. The strength, rate, and quality of cell adhesion and detachment on the prepared surface were modulated by changes in temperature across the lower critical solution temperature range of PIPAAm molecules. In addition, a two-dimensional cell structure (cell sheet) was successfully recovered on the optimized surfaces. These unique PIPAAm surfaces may be useful for controlling the strength of cell adhesion and detachment.
纳米结构表面最近吸引了大量关注,因为它们的各种潜在应用,包括图案化,细胞培养,清洗,和表面交换。例如,通过荷叶和其它响应表面的纳米结构启发超疏水表面是能够反应以外部刺激1-4。
朗缪尔膜是最广泛研究的聚合物涂层中的一个。朗缪尔膜通过滴两性分子到空气-水界面5-8形成。该膜然后可通过物理或化学吸附被转移到一个固体表面上,并且可以使用垂直和水平转移方法9-12被控制在固体表面上的分子的构象。朗缪尔膜的密度可以通过压缩的空气 – 水界面精确地调节。最近,这种方法也被证明有效的用于制造纳米尺度的海岛structur利用两亲性嵌段共聚物上课。纳米结构被假定为是由疏水性链段的芯和亲水性链段13-17的壳的。此外,在表面上的纳米结构的数量是通过控制在界面上的嵌段共聚物的每个分子的面积(A M)调节。
