Enhanced cell adhesion and binding stability on the dendirmer-coated surfaces under static conditions. a) The ratios of the numbers of the bound cancer cells on the dendrimer-immobilized surfaces to those on the PEGylated surfaces. Error bars: standard error (n > 3). b) Dissociation kinetics of MDA-MB-361 cells on the dendrimer-immobilized surfaces and the PEGylated surfaces. The dendrimer-immobilized surfaces significantly increase the fraction of remaining cells on the surfaces upon static agitation as compared to the PEGylated surfaces even after reducing the amount of aEpCAM added. Error bars: standard error (n=3). c) Recovery yields of the captured MDA-MB-361 cells using various numbers (10, 20, 200, and 1,000) of the cells spiked with and without HL-60 cells. Significant improvements of the dendrimer surfaces were observed when either 103 of cancer cells were applied or the cells were mixed with HL-60 cells (107 cells per surface). Error bars: standard error (n=3). Asterisks indicate p < 0.05.

Figure 3
Enhanced cell binding stability by combination of multivalent binding and cell rolling under flow. Three substrates, epoxy-functionalized, PEGylated, and dendrimer-immobilized surfaces, treated with aEpCAM alone (a) or with both aEpCAM and E-selectin (b) were compared in terms of capture efficiency. The captured cancer cells on the surfaces were counted after injection of cell suspensions and washing with PBS at a shear stress of 0.8 dyn cm−2, followed by normalization based on the number of each cell line on the epoxy-functionalized surfaces without E-selectin. Up to 7-fold enhancement in the capture efficiency by the dendrimer-immobilized surface was achieved through combination of rolling (E-selectin) and multivalent binding (aEpCAM). Error bars: standard error (n=3).
