Abstract
Single-cell biophysical characterization based on impedance measurement is an advantageous approach due to its label-free, high-efficiency, cost-effective and real-time capability. Biophysical phenotyping can yield timely and rich information on physiological and pathological state of cells for disease diagnosis, drug screening, precision medicine, etc. However, precise measurement on single-cell impedance is challenging, particularly hard to figure out the detailed biophysical parameters of single cell due to coupling and complexity of impedance model. Here, we propose an analytic determination method to decode single-cell electrophysiological parameters (including cell-substrate interface capacitance, cell membrane capacitance, cell membrane conductivity, and cytoplasm conductivity) from the impedances measured at optimized frequencies by using analytic solution rather than spectrum fitting. With this simple and fast analytic solution method, the physiological parameters of single cell in natural adhesion state can be accurately determined in real time. We validate this cell parameter determination method in monitoring the change of cell adhesion under hydraulic effects and exploring electrophysiological differences among MCF-7, HeLa, Huh7, and MDA-MB-231 cell lines. Particularly, we apply the approach to optimize tumor treating fields (TTFields) therapy, realizing individualized precision medicine. Our work provides an accurate and efficient approach for characterizing single-cell biophysical properties with real-time, in-situ, label-free, and less invasive advantages.

Regulation of localized corrosion of 316L stainless steel on osteogenic differentiation of bone morrow derived mesenchymal stem cells. Biomaterials 2023; 301:122262. [PMID: 37542857 DOI: 10.1016/j.biomaterials.2023.122262] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2022] [Revised: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 07/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/07/2023]
Abstract
Localized corrosion has become a concerning issue in orthopedic implants as it is associated with peri-implant adverse tissue reactions and implant failure. Here, the pitting corrosion of 316 L stainless steels (316 L SSs) was initiated by electrochemical polarization to simulate the in vivo localized corrosion of orthopedic implants. The effect of localized corrosion on osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) was systematically studied. The results suggest that pitting corrosion of 316 L SS reduced the viability, adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation abilities of BMSCs, especially for the cells around the corrosion pits. The relatively high concentrations of metallic ions such as Cr3+ and Ni2+ released by pitting corrosion could cause cytotoxicity to the BMSCs. The inhomogeneous electrochemical environment resulted from localized corrosion could promote reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation around the corrosion pits and cause oxidative stress of BMSCs. In addition, localized corrosion could also electrochemically interact with the cells and lead to cell membrane depolarization. The depolarized cell membranes and relatively high levels of ROS mediated the degradation of the osteogenic capacity of BMSCs. This work provides new insights into corrosion-mediated cell function degeneration as well as the material-cell interactions.

The Influence of Electrode Design on Detecting the Effects of Ferric Ammonium Citrate (FAC) on Pre-Osteoblast through Electrical Cell-Substrate Impedance Sensing (ECIS). BIOSENSORS 2023; 13:322. [PMID: 36979534 PMCID: PMC10046662 DOI: 10.3390/bios13030322] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2023] [Revised: 02/15/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Detection sensitivity is a crucial factor in the application of ECIS sensors. For these biosensors, the electrode configuration has a direct impact on sensitivity, yet few studies on monopolar electrodes have been reported. In this study, ECIS sensor arrays, which have a series of working electrode configuration with a wide diameter range and different electrode number, were fabricated to monitor living osteoblast-like MC3T3-E1 cells. The experimental results revealed that when the electrode diameter was larger than 25 μm, electrodes with smaller diameter and number yielded higher impedance values and generated more impedance shift to cell status change. The membrane capacitance obtained by equivalent circuit fitting was at the same level. When the electrode diameter was even smaller, the results in detection of cell monolayer were opposite, and there was no distinct relationship between impedance and membrane capacitance shift to cell status change and electrode geometry. The proposed sensor chip, allowing for a sustained and stable detection of cellular impedance, provides the basis for the selection of the electrode configuration of monopolar electrodes. The test results of electrodes with a diameter of 25 μm and lower indicated the possibility of single cell impedance measurement, which can provide unique insight into the heterogeneous electrical behavior of cells, and, in this case, the electrode size should be close to the cell size.

Abstract
Some pathogenic bacteria may cause serious food poisoning as well as catastrophic infections. Thus, it is critical to identify bacteria using simple, quick, and sensitive methods. Herein, we fabricate a graphene aerogel-based biosensing system to capture and detect Escherichia coli (E. coli) with high specificity and sensitivity. A graphene aerogel is prepared by a one-step hydrothermal synthesis method without any reducing reagent. With the help of E. coli antibodies and the graphene foam with a porous structure, E. coli can be captured using the detection substrate with high specificity and selectivity. The electrical resistance and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) results of the graphene aerogel foam changed with high sensitivity during E. coli adhesion. Moreover, the resistance change of the graphene device can still be observed when the E. coli concentration was as low as 10 cfu mL-1, while there is no obvious resistance change in the use of Staphylococcus aureus. The subsequent EIS test also found that the charge transfer resistance (Rct) of the detection substrate gradually increased during the E. coli capture process. This nanoelectronic biosensor is simple, quick, safe, and very sensitive, and it may be used as a high-throughput platform for pathogenic bacterial detection, bacterial research, and antimicrobial drug screening.
