Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and is a method for measuring the spread rate of adherent cells and the influence of various drugs on the cell spread rate. technical background
[0002] Cell spreading is one of the important physiological activities or functions of adherent cells, and many human physiological activities or diseases are related to cell spreading. For example, vascular endothelial cells build the inner wall of blood vessels or repair the damaged vascular endothelial layer through cell spreading. Therefore, changes in endothelial cell spreading are often related to the occurrence, development and tumor metastasis of cardiovascular diseases, and the effect of drugs on cell spreading It must also be one of the important indicators in in vitro cell tests to evaluate the efficacy of drugs.
[0003] Unfortunately, the mechanism of cell spreading, especially the effect of drugs on cell spreading, is not well understood, an...
