Dependence of Filopodia Morphology and the Separation Efficiency of Primary CD4+ T‑Lymphocytes on Nanopillars
Despite significant improvement in separation efficiency using nanostructure-based platforms, the mechanism underlying the high efficiency of rare cell capture remains elusive. Here we report on the first mechanistic study by developing highly controlled nanostructures to investigate cell surface na...

Summary: | Despite significant improvement in separation efficiency using nanostructure-based platforms, the mechanism underlying the high efficiency of rare cell capture remains elusive. Here we report on the first mechanistic study by developing highly controlled nanostructures to investigate cell surface nanomorphology to better understand the cellular response of CD4+ T-lymphocytes in contact with nanostructured surfaces and to elucidate key mechanisms for enhancing separation efficiency. Our results showed that actin-rich filopodia protruded from T-cells in the early stage of cell capture ( |
