dc.description.abstractExtrinsically induced or engineered cells are providing new therapeutic means in emerging fields such as cell therapeutics, immunomodulation and regenerative medicine. We are demonstrating a spatial induction method using lipid coatings, which can change signal presentation strength from material surface to adherent macrophage cells, that induce early cell-cell interaction leading to organotypic morphology. For that, we have developed a cell mimetic lipid coating with a rafts size to the order of transmembrane proteins (<10 nm) with enhanced lateral elastic properties. Such surface coatings are capable of reducing adherent macrophage spreading, while enabling early induction of cell-cell interaction to form organotypic macrophage colonies or "spheres" (M-spheres).
