Surface treatments and cell attachment

Abstract: Photoelectron spectroscopic examination of treated plastic surfaces showed that surface oxidation, primarily as carboxyl groups, was responsible for formation of good growth surfaces. Gas-plasma studies indicated that only very short exposures were required and that the effect was confined to a thin surface layer that produced adhesive surfaces. Highly adhesive surfaces were produced using oxidizing chemicals. Studies with a polymeric ester demonstrated the importance of unesterified carboxyl groups for high a… Show more

“…During the repeated passaging by trypsinization, we used standard tissue culture plastic dishes instead of gelatin-coated plates. The early introduction of the tissue culture plastic dishes probably accelerated selection for MSClike cells because the dishes are pretreated under proprietary conditions to increase oxygenated derivatives on the surface of the plastic and thereby make them more hydrophilic and increase the adherence of vertebrate fibroblasts and similar cells (45). The selection by adherence on the treated plastic also met one of the minimal defining criteria for human MSCs (32).…”

“…Soon after, a variety of surface-synthesis strategies were explored, ranging from use of liquid-phase chemical oxidants [35,36] to application of gas-discharge treatments [37] now commonly employed in the commercial production of disposable plastic tissue cultureware [38]. Evidence mounted supporting the idea that a particular surface functional group -hydroxyl or carboxyl for example -was particularly stimulatory to cell adhesion and proliferation [39][40][41][42][43] over other functional groups. However, it has proven difficult in subsequent research to clearly separate cause-and-effect in the cell adhesion/proliferation process, especially in the ubiquitous presence of proteins, and by doing so, unambiguously separate surface chemistry from all other influences (such as surface energy/water wettability) [44].…”
