ChemistryBiophysicsCell behaviourIn vitrodescription
The behaviour of cells in vitro is the result of all the influences exerted by the actual microenvironment which, in a simplified form, is composed of two main compartments (Fig. 1): (i) the diffusive environment, (ii) the contact environment. These two compartments regulate the cell behaviour by distinct mechanisms induced by molecules which, beside being compartment-specific, differ in their mobility.
