摘要

Cell adhesion forces are typically a mixture of specific and nonspecific cell substrate and cell–cell interactions. In order to resolve these phenomena, Atomic Force Microscopy appears as a powerful device which can measure cell parameters by means of manipulation of single cells. This method, commonly known as cell-probe force spectroscopy, allows us to control the force applied, the area of interest, the approach/retracting speed, the force rate, and theudtime of interaction. Here, we developed a novel approach for in situ cantilever cell capturing and measurement of specific cell interactions. In particular, we present a new setup consisting of two different half-surfaces coated either with recrystallized SbpA bacterial cell surface layer proteinsud(S-layers) or integrin binding Fibronectin, on which MCF-7 breast cancer cells are incubated. The presence of a clear physical boundary between both surfaces benefits for a quick detection of the region under analysis. Thus, quantitative results about SbpA-cell and Fibronectin-cell adhesionudforces as a function of the contact time are described. Additionally, the importance of the cell spreading in cell–cell interactions has been studied for surfaces coated with two different Fibronectin concentrations: 20 lg/mL (FN20) and 100 lg/mL (FN100), which impact the number of substrate receptors.
