| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In former works, single liposomes, capsule forms of a lipid bilayer, were applied for studies on single cell models, playing a role of a compartment to isolate a cytoplasm model. Here we focused on the tissue structure rather than the individual cells, and developed an assembled cell model by taking advantage of the adhesion of multiple liposomes; we further aim to reproduce and understand the concerted functions expressed by the mass of cells in living tissues in the future work. Based on our previous works, which enabled the formation of cell-sized liposomes in array format, liposome-liposome assembly was implemented by using streptavidin-biotin connections.
