Lamellipodia‐Mediated Osteoblast Haptotaxis Guided by Fibronectin Ligand Concentrations on a Multiplex Chip
Abstract: Skull morphogenesis is a complex, dynamic process involving two different germ layers and progressing to the coordinated, directional growth of individual bones. The mechanisms underlying directional growth toward the apex are not completely understood. Here, a microfluidic chip‐based approach is utilized to test whether calvarial osteoblast progenitors undergo haptotaxis on a gradient of Fibronectin1 (FN1) via lamellipodia. Mimicking the embryonic cranial mesenchyme's FN1 pattern, FN1 gradients is established in the chip using computer modeling and fluorescent labeling. Primary mouse calvarial osteoblast progenitors are plated in the chip along an array of segmented gradients of adsorbed FN1. The study performs single‐cell tracking and measures protrusive activity. Haptotaxis is observed at an intermediate FN1 concentration, with an average directional migration index (yFMI) of 0.07, showing a significant increase compared to the control average yFMI of ‐0.01. A significant increase in protrusive activity is observed during haptotaxis. Haptotaxis is an Arp2/3‐dependent, lamellipodia‐mediated process. Calvarial osteoblast progenitors treated with the Arp2/3 (Actin Related Protein 2/3 complex) inhibitor CK666 show significantly diminished haptotaxis, with an average yFMI of 0.01. Together, these results demonstrate haptotaxis on an FN1 gradient as a new mechanism in the apical expansion of calvarial osteoblast progenitors during development and shed light on the etiology of calvarial defects.
