  • Artistic Interpretation of the Significance of Human Breast Cancer Cell Vinculin Distribution in Different Extracellular Matrix Conditions

    Creator:
    Hsiao, Yu-Tin
    Abstract:
    There are clues that suggest human breast cancer cells use collagen fibers to migrate, and vinculin is a transmembrane protein associated with how cells attach to their environment. Therefore, immunostaining for the vinculin will shed some light in how human breast cancer cells are attaching to their environment. Immunostaining for...

  • Formation and Migration of Breast Cancer Spheroids

    Creator:
    Hurley, Casey M.
    Abstract:
    Invasive breast cancer affects 1 in 8 women during their lifetime. Current cancer research uses 2-D cell culturing, which does not accurately represent tumor behavior. In comparison to tumors, cells grown using 2-D cell culturing have different proliferation and diffusion rates, cell shapes, and gene expression. To improve in vitro...

  • A quantitative analysis of three-dimensional contact guidance by breast cancer cells

    Creator:
    Krnacik, Emma A.
    Abstract:
    Exploring and quantifying the parameters regarding contact guidance may provide valuable insight to the precise mechanisms controlling cell movement, especially in a three-dimensional environment. The objective of this project was to quantify the relationship between MDA-MB-231 cell morphogenesis and the geometry of the cell’s local microenvironment, which was modeled by...
