Shape-Dependent Cell Migration and Focal Adhesion Organization on Suspended and Aligned Nanofiber Scaffolds
Acta Biomaterialia
In the body, cells dynamically respond to chemical and mechanical cues from the extracellular matrix (ECM), yet precise mechanisms by which biophysical parameters (stiffness, topography and alignment) affect cell behavior remain unclear. Here, highly aligned and suspended multilayer polystyrene (PS) nanofiber scaffolds are used to study biophysical influences on focal adhesion complex (FAC) arrangement and associated migration behavior of mouse C2C12 cells arranged in specific shapes: spindle…
In the body, cells dynamically respond to chemical and mechanical cues from the extracellular matrix (ECM), yet precise mechanisms by which biophysical parameters (stiffness, topography and alignment) affect cell behavior remain unclear. Here, highly aligned and suspended multilayer polystyrene (PS) nanofiber scaffolds are used to study biophysical influences on focal adhesion complex (FAC) arrangement and associated migration behavior of mouse C2C12 cells arranged in specific shapes: spindle, parallel and polygonal. Furthermore, the role of cytoskeletal-altering drugs including blebbistatin, nocodazole and cytochalasin-D on FAC formation and migratory behavior is investigated. For the first time, this work reports that cells on suspended fiber networks, including cells with administered drugs, elongated along the fiber axes and developed longer (∼ 4×) and more concentrated FAC clusters compared to cells on flat PS control substrates. Additionally, substrate designs which topographically restrict sites of cell attachment and align adhesions were found to promote higher migration speeds (spindle: 52 μm h−1, parallel: 39 μm h−1, polygonal: 25 μm h−1, flat: 32 μm h−1). This work demonstrates that suspended fiber topography-induced concentration of FACs along fiber axes generates increased migration potential as opposed to flat surfaces, which diffuse and randomly orient adhesions.

Single Cell Multiplex Intracellular Protein Capture Device
-
Based on the academic work developed and published by Jim Heath' lab at Caltech, IsoPlexis developed a technology that is more user friendly and commercially scalable than its academic counterpart. The Isopleis consumable utilizes controlled drug released technology to lyse and capture proteins from single cells rather than utlizing active microfluidics. This improvement greatly simplified the manufacturing and commercialization process as the consumable was compatible with the existing…
Based on the academic work developed and published by Jim Heath' lab at Caltech, IsoPlexis developed a technology that is more user friendly and commercially scalable than its academic counterpart. The Isopleis consumable utilizes controlled drug released technology to lyse and capture proteins from single cells rather than utlizing active microfluidics. This improvement greatly simplified the manufacturing and commercialization process as the consumable was compatible with the existing instrument architecture and could be mass produced with far less capital investment.
This project required developing a unique hydrogel chemistry that could a release a detergent at the desired rate, an optimal lysis buffer formulation that was compatible with the release chemistry and sufficiently solubilized and stabilized the intracellular proteins, an immobilization chemistry that could link the loaded hydrogel to the PDMS microchambers and a unique manufacturing method that could coat the hydrogel in the microchambers and seal the device.
A patent was issued on this technology called Compositions and methods for the simultaneous genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic analysis of single cells on Nov 22, 2018 (WO2018089910A2 ) -
IsoCode Immuno-oncology Sampe Preperation Protocols for in-vitro Single Cell Analysis
-
Developed sample preperation protocols IsoCode/ SCBC technology for a large range of immunology applications including cell engineering and therapy, checkpoint and combination immunotherapy, vaccines and immunology research, inflammatory and autoimmune disease and solid tumor and oncology. These protocols were used and published in over 30 different papers and conference presentations that discovered clinical biomarkers where state of the art technologies could not.

These protocols were used and published in over 30 different papers and conference presentations that discovered clinical biomarkers where state of the art technologies could not.
Protocol optimization required validation with comparator assays to verify single cells results with industry standard immunoassays such as ELISA, intracellular cytokine staining (ICS), bead based immunoassays (e.g. Luminex).
In addition, a variety of cell selection/enrichment technologies were optimized for primary human cells including bead enrichment and flow cytometry.
Finally, a variety of cell types such as T-cell, NK, innate, CAR-T and TCR-T were used to optimize activation to discover clinical correlates with the IsoCode technology. In-vitro stimulation with different stimulants, APCs and kinetics were explored and compared with clincical outcome -
