实验流程
- The CytoSelect™ Collagen Cell Invasion Assay Kit contains polycarbonate membrane inserts (8 μm pore size) in a 24-well plate. The upper surface of the insert membrane is coated with a uniform layer of dried Bovine Type I Collagen matrix. This collagen matrix layer serves as a barrier to discriminate invasive cells from non-invasive cells. Invasive cells are able to degrade the collagen matrix layer, and ultimately pass through the pores of the polycarbonate membrane. Finally, these invaded cells are then dissociated from the membrane and subsequently detected by the patented CyQuant® GR Dye (Invitrogen).

实验流程
-
- Under sterile conditions, allow the collagen invasion chamber plate to warm up at room temperature for 10 minutes.
- Rehydrate the collagen layer of the cell culture inserts by adding 300 μL of warm, serum-free media to the inner compartment. Incubate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Prepare a cell suspension containing 0.5-1.0 x 106 cells/mL in serum free media. Agents that inhibit or stimulate cell invasion can be added directly to the cell suspension. Note: Overnight starvation may be performed prior to running the assay
- Carefully remove 250 μL of rehydration medium (step 2) from the inserts without disturbing the collagen layer (leaving 50 μL inside).
- Add 250 μL of the cell suspension solution to the inside of each insert.
- Add 500 μL of media containing 10 % fetal bovine serum or desired chemoattractant(s) to the lower well of the invasion plate.
- Incubate for 12-24 hours in a cell culture incubator.
- Carefully aspirate the media from the inside of the insert. Transfer the insert to a clean well containing 225 μL of Cell Detachment Solution. Incubate 30 minutes at 37 °C.
- Completely dislodge the invaded cells from the underside of the membrane by gently tilting the insert several times in the detachment solution. Remove and discard the insert.
- Prepare sufficient 4X Lysis Buffer/CyQuant® GR dye solution for all samples by diluting the dye 1:75 in 4X Lysis Buffer (for example, add 5 μL to 370 μL of 4X Lysis Buffer).
- Add 75 μL of 4X Lysis Buffer/CyQuant® GR dye solution to each well containing cells and 225 μL of Cell Detachment Solution. Incubate 20 minutes at room temperature.
- Transfer 200 μL of the mixture to a 96-well plate suitable for fluorescence measurement. Read fluorescence with a fluorescence plate reader at 480 nm/520 nm. 4

背景
- The ability of malignant tumor cells to invade normal surrounding tissue contributes in large part to the significant morbidity and mortality of cancers. Invasiveness requires several distinct cellular functions including adhesion, motility, detachment, and extracellular matrix proteolysis. Metastatic cells produce many proteolytic enzymes (e.g. lysosomal hydrolysates, collagenases, plasminogen activators) while the expression of certain cell surface protease receptors is also increased.
