Popis: | This paper describes a method for microcontact printing protein solutions onto polymer substrates temporarily activated by oxygen plasma. Following plasma treatment, poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) stamps were coated with an aqueous laminin solution then placed in direct contact with plasma-treated poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) substrates. This process resulted in well defined laminin stripes on the PMMA surface when printing was performed within 45min of the plasma treatment. Axonal outgrowth from embryonic chick dorsal root ganglia (DRG) was largely confined to the stamped pattern, while over 90% of primary rat Schwann cells adhered to the protein stamped areas on the PMMA substrates. Oxygen-plasma treatment of the PMMA surface was necessary to deposit proteins that direct axonal outgrowth from chick DRG and Schwann cell adherence. |
