Figure 1
Schematic representation of a microenvironment array. Combinations of signals and adhesion molecules are printed onto an aldehyde-activated surface to generate an array of 350–500 μm diameter spots. Suspended cells are briefly incubated on the array and single-cell populations are captured on the spots by adherence to the printed extracellular matrix components or adhesion molecules. Automated fluorescence microscopy and computer-assisted feature extraction allows a high-throughput quantitative analysis of multiple phenotypic outcomes at the single cell level.
