Dynamic control of cell migration

Confine the cells and release them at the exact moment you want, using PRIMO photopatterning technology.

Studying collective or individual cell migration can often be difficult due to biological variability.

PRIMO technology allows you to standardize these studies:

  • by controlling the initial geometry of your cellular arrangements
  • and choosing the t0 when cell migration is induced, for a dynamic control of cell migration.

HeLa cells were plated on a ring pattern of fibronectin. After addition of PLPP and UV-illumination of the center of the ring, the anti-adhesive molecules are removed and the cells start to migrate inwards.
