Abstract

New high-throughput techniques based on tissue and cell microarrays will facilitate clinical and pharmaceutical analysis of molecular targets because living cells can monitor the targets through the physiological changes that are induced in them by exposure to drugs and environmental perturbations, such as toxicants, pathogens or other agents. PEG engineered surface was constructed on glass and gold surface by two different micropatterning technique, viz., a UV etching and a photo-lithography. The obtained surfaces were evaluated by the cultivation of endotherial cell in order to construct patterned feeder layer. The tumor hepatocyte spheroid array could be constructed on the endotherial feeder pattern.
