Abstract EN
Tumor hypoxia provides a dynamic environment for the cancer cells to thrive and metastasize.
Evaluation of cell growth, cell-cell, and cell surface interactions in hypoxic conditions is therefore highly needed in the establishment of treatment options.
Electric cell-substrate impedance sensing (ECIS) has been traditionally used in the evaluation of cellular platforms as a real-time, label-free impedance-based method to study the activities of cells grown in tissue cultures, but its application for hypoxic environments is seldom reported.
We present real-time evaluation of hypoxia-induced bioeffects with a focus on hypoxic pH regulation of tumor environment.
To this end, multiparametric real-time bioanalytical platform using electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and human colon cancer HT-29 cells is advanced.
A time series of EIS data enables monitoring with high temporal resolution the alterations occurring within the cell layer, especially at the cell-substrate level.
We reveal the dynamic changes of cellular processes during hypoxic conditions and in response to application of acetazolamide (AZA), a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor.
Optical evaluation and pH assessment complemented the electrical analysis towards establishing a pattern of cellular changes.
The proposed bioanalytical platform indicates wide applicability towards evaluation of bioeffects of hypoxia at cellular level.
