3D in vitro culture systems may yield physiological outcomes that more closely approximate in vivo behavior. A number of fabrication techniques and hydrogel scaffold materials are available to researchers, but often their implementation is complex and seemingly prohibitive. Herein, we describe a simplistic and adaptable dual hydrogel photolithography method utilized to engineer advanced in vitro systems for studies of neuronal development and characterization.
3D体外培养系统可能产生更接近体内行为的生理结果。研究人员可以使用多种制造技术和水凝胶支架材料,但它们的实施往往很复杂,似乎难以实现。在此,我们描述了一种简单且适应性强的双水凝胶光刻方法,用于构建先进的体外系统,以研究神经元的发育和特性。
