title: [A study on adhesive properties of transformed human embryonic tendon cells to PLA and PLGA].
abstract: To study the adhesive properties of transformed human embryonic tendon cells (THETCs) to polylactic acid(PLA) and polylactic-co-glycolic acid 85/15 (PLGA 85/15), the adhesive mechanical properties of single THETCs to PLA films (average thickness 18.6 microns) and PLGA 85/15 films (average thickness 17.3 microns) were measured by means of micropipet aspirating technique. The rsults showed that the attachment rate and adhesive force for two polymer groups(PLA precoated with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and PLGA 85/15 precoated with BSA) were significantly lower than those for two control groups(PLA and PLGA 85/15), respectively, while the attachment rate and adhesive force for other two polymer groups (PLA precoated with poly-D-lysine (PDL) and PLGA 85/15 precoated with PDL) were significantly higher than those for two control groups, respectively, and that the adhesive properties of THETCs to PLGA 85/15 films were better than those of THETCs to PLA films. These demonstrate that BSA can inhibit THETCs attachment to polymer, and PDL can promote THETCs attachment to polymer, and suggest that PLGA 85/15 films were better than those of THETCs to PLA films. These demonstrate that BSA can inhibit THETCs attachment to polymer, and PDL can promote THETCs attachment to polymer, and suggest that PLGA 85/15 coated with PDL may be used as a new type attachment substrate for THETCs.
