Intervention of cardiomyocyte death based on real-time monitoring of cell adhesion through impedance sensing
چکیده انگلیسی

Cardiomyocyte death caused by proinflammatory cytokines, such as Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), is one of the hot topics in cardiovascular research. TNF-α can induce multiple cell processes that are dependent on the treatment time although the long-term treatment definitely leads to cell death. The ability to intervene in cell death will be invaluable to reveal the effects of short-term TNF-α treatment to cardiomyocytes. However, a real-time monitoring technique is needed to guide the intervention of cell responses. In this work, we employed the impedance-sensing technique to real-time monitor the equivalent cell–substrate distance of cardiomyocytes via electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and electrical cell–substrate impedance sensing (ECIS). In the stabilized cardiomyocyte culture, the sustained TNF-α treatment caused strengthened cell adhesion in the first 2 h which was followed by the transition to cell detachment afterwards. Considering cell detachment was an early morphological evidence of cell death, we removed TNF-α from the cardiomyocyte culture before the transition to achieve the intervention of cell responses. The result of this intervention showed that cell adhesion was continuously strengthened before and after the removal of TNF-α, indicating the short-term treated cardiomyocytes did not undergo death processes. It was also demonstrated in TUNEL and TBE tests that the percentages of apoptosis and cell death were both lowered.
