The basic principle of ECIS was first reported by Giaever and Keese, then at the General Electric Corporate Research and Development Center.

Giaever, I. And Keese, C.R. PNAS 81, 3761-3764 (1984).

A published model fits the experimental data The measured impedance can be broken down into three parameters

1) Rb, the barrier function of the cell layer

2) Alpha, a term associated with the constricted current flow beneath the cell

3) Cm, the membrane capacitance

[Giaever, I. and Keese, C.R., PNAS 81, 3761 (1991)]

Detection of single cell activity

What is measured using ECIS?

Cell morphology changes including:1) Barrier function of confluent layers2) Relative size of cells and spaces beneath cells3) Membrane capacitance

All measurements are made in normal culture medium

The measurement is non- invasive

LimitationsCells must anchor and spread upon substratumA limited population of cells is measured at one time (1 to 1,000 cells)

The basis of the metastatic assay

Page 16: Cytokinesis following mitosisMembrane Ruffling.

The Dunning prostatic adenocarcinoma series was developed at Johns Hopkins and consists of several cell sublines.

These all have their origin in a single line isolated from a prostatic tumor. After extensive passaging and mutagenesis, several distinct sublines were isolated having different in vivo metastatic abilities. Six of these lines were used in our studies.

Page 17: Cytokinesis following mitosisMembrane Ruffling.

To carry out the metastatic assay, first a layer of endothelial cells is established

Confluence verified
