in vitroアッセイモデルシュワン細胞-アストロサイト相互作用するために使用されており、細胞挙動の根底にあるメカニズムを理解する上で重要な役割を演じてきた。
in vitroアッセイこれらは、共培養は、2つのセルの前線を分離するだけの小さなギャップと異なる地域を占める各セルのタイプと二つの異なる細胞を用いて作られている境界のアッセイを、含まれています。細胞が分裂と移行するように、2つの細胞の前線が近づくごとに、他に取得し、最終的に衝突する。これは2つの細胞集団の振る舞いが境界で分析することができます。同技術のもう一つの変化は、文化の2つの細胞集団を混合し、時間をかけて2種類の細胞型は、シュワン細胞と分離するとともに、複数のシュワン-アストロサイトの境界を作成するアストロサイトとの間の島々として一緒に凝集することです。
