Clamping type multi-concave cell culture sheet

Technical Field

The utility model relates to a clamping type multi-concave cell culture sheet.

Background

The conventional cell culture is an adherent two-dimensional culture mode, but because the communication among cells is very little, cell groups cannot have the structure and physiological and biochemical characteristics similar to those in vivo. For example, liver cells lose the tubular structure of liver bile duct and the function of secreting albumin/urea after several days in adherent culture, or cancer cells lack biomarkers in vivo in two-dimensional culture. Compared with the prior art, the three-dimensional culture of the cells can effectively improve and simulate the in vivo environment, for example, the three-dimensional culture of the hepatocytes has the three-dimensional structure and the liver function of a natural liver, and more accurate hepatotoxicity data is obtained; the cancer cells can reproduce some biomarkers and certain metastasis and infiltration functions under three-dimensional culture. Therefore, the importance of three-dimensional cell culture is self-evident.

However, the current three-dimensional culture method is too complex and high in economic cost (such as a scaffold method), so that the three-dimensional culture cannot be widely accepted by common researchers; or lack of high throughput features, such as the use of agarose or ultra-low adsorption plates in 96-well plates, where only one cell three-dimensional sphere can be formed in one well; since each cell ball has the cell amount of about 1000 cells, cell ball staining, Western Blot protein detection, qPCR quantification of mRNA transcription level and a method based on a detection kit all need at least 50K above cells to obtain reliable data.

Therefore, in the process of three-dimensional cell culture promoted in the actual market, due to the complex pretreatment mode, high economic cost, small number of spheroids and lack of high-flux characteristics, the multi-concave cell pellet culture plate which can be used by simple treatment appears, but at present, when the cultured cell pellets are collected into a required container, the transfer of the culture plate is difficult, and the operation is inconvenient.
