Isolation of Extracellular Vesicles from Cell Culture and Blood Through Nano-Targeted DLD Microfluidic Device
Résumé
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are secreted by cells and found in biological fluids such as blood, with concentration correlated with oncogenic signals, making them attractive biomarkers for liquid biopsy. The current gold-standard method for EVs isolation requires an ultracentrifugation (UC) step among others. The cost and complexity of this technique are forbiddingly high for many researchers, as well as for routine use in biological laboratories and hospitals. This chapter reports on a simple microfluidic method for EVs isolation, based on a microfluidic size sorting technique named Deterministic Lateral Displacement (DLD). With the design of micrometric DLD array, we demonstrated the potential of our DLD devices for the isolation of nano-biological objects such as EVs, with main population size distribution consistent with UC technique.
