[Abstract] The scratch wound healing assay has been widely adapted and modified to study the effects of a variety of experimental conditions, for instance, gene knockdown or chemical exposure, on mammalian cell migration and proliferation. In a typical scratch wound healing assay, a “wound gap” in a cell monolayer is created by scratching, and the “healing” of this gap by cell migration and growth towards the center of the gap is monitored and often quantitated. Factors that alter the motility and/or growth of the cells can lead to increased or decreased rate of “healing” of the gap (Lampugnani, 1999). ...
[摘要] 细胞伤口愈合实验被研究者广泛应用和改进，用来研究各种实验条件比如基因敲除和化疗在细胞迁移和增殖中的作用。该实验操作简单，费用廉价，实验条件容易根据不同的目的改进。该方法的基本原理是，在单层培养细胞间制作划痕以产生愈伤区域，然后监控该伤口周围细胞的向划痕迁移的现象，即伤口愈合。改变细胞迁移和/或生长的因素可以增加或降低伤口愈合率。该方法可以定量，适用于自动化系统高通量筛选。
