Poly- L -lysine/lminin surface coating reverses glial cell mechanosensitivity on stiffness-patterned hydrogels

Résumé

Brain tissues demonstrate heterogeneous mechanical properties, which evolve with aging and pathologies. The observation in these tissues of smooth to sharp rigidity gradients raises the question of brain cell responses to both different values of rigidity and their spatial variations, in dependence on the surface chemistry they are exposed to. Here, we used recent techniques of hydrogel photopolymerization to achieve stiffness texturing down to micrometer resolution in polyacrylamide hydrogels. We investigated primary neuron adhesion and orientation as well as glial cell proliferative properties on these rigidity-textured hydrogels for two adhesive coatings: fibronectin or poly-l-lysine/laminin. Our main observation is that glial cell adhesion and proliferation is favored on the stiffer regions when the adhesive coating is fibronectin and on the softer ones when it consists of poly-l-lysine/laminin. This behavior was unchanged by the presence or the absence of neuronal cells. In addition, glial cells were not confined by sharp, micron-scaled gradients of rigidity. Our observations suggest that rigidity sensing could involve adhesion-related pathways that profoundly depend on surface chemistry
