Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To aim at creating a cell culture bio-actuator capable of exhibiting superior characteristics such as biological muscle, we studied the establishment of the myoblasts orientation control technique and the research of the electrical stimulation condition of cultured muscle cells. As a result, about half of myotube cells for the orientation of the sheets was able to orient parallel, by the orientation control experiment with the monolayer oriented collagen sheet. And also in the study of the electrical stimulation condition of the cultured muscle cells, we found that the amount of displacement of the contractile relaxation could controlled by an electrical stimulation condition using strong contraction and we established the basic technology to control the cell culture bio-actuator.
