This contribution describes how cells react to polymer substrates surface-modified with plasma processes developed in our lab. These processes have been combined, with the use of physical masks, to develop surfaces micro-patterned with cell-adhesive and cellrepulsive domains, which become thus able to drive cell adhesion, spreading and growth along defined directions.

Abstract

This contribution describes how cells react to polymer substrates surface-modified with plasma processes developed in our lab. These processes have been combined, with the use of physical masks, to develop surfaces micro-patterned with cell-adhesive and cellrepulsive domains, which become thus able to drive cell adhesion, spreading and growth along defined directions.
