The wide use of 3D-organotypic cell models is imperative for advancing our understanding of basic cell biological mechanisms. For this purpose, easy-to-use enabling technology is required, which should optimally link standardized assessment methods to those used for the formation, cultivation, and evaluation of cell aggregates or primordial tissue. We thus conceived, manufactured, and tested devices which provide the means for cell aggregation and online monitoring within a hanging drop. We then established a workflow for spheroid manipulation and immune phenotyping. This described workflow conserves media and reagent, facilitates the uninterrupted tracking of spheroid formation under various conditions, and enables 3D-marker analysis by means of 3D epifluorescence deconvolution microscopy. We provide a full description of the low-cost manufacturing process for the fluidic devices and microscopic assessment tools, and the detailed blueprints and building instructions are disclosed. Conclusively, the presented compilation of methods and techniques promotes a quick and barrier-free entry into 3D cell biology. |
