Izmir Institute of TechnologyDiamagnetic levitation is an emerging technology for remote manipulation of cells in cell and tissue level applications. Low-cost magnetic levitation configurations using permanent magnets are commonly composed of a culture chamber physically sandwiched between two block magnets that limit working volume and applicability. This work describes a single ring magnet-based magnetic levitation system to eliminate physical limitations for biofabrication. Developed configuration utilizes sample culture volume for construct size manipulation and long-term maintenance. Furthermore, our configuration enables convenient transfer of liquid or solid phases during the levitation. Before biofabrication, we first calibrated/ the platform for levitation with polymeric beads, considering the single cell density range of viable cells. By taking advantage of magnetic focusing and cellular self-assembly, millimeter-sized 3D structures were formed and maintained in the system allowing easy and on-site intervention in cell culture with an open operational space. We demonstrated that the levitation protocol could be adapted for levitation of various cell types (i.e., stem cell, adipocyte and cancer cell) representing cells of different densities by modifying the paramagnetic ion concentration that could be also reduced by manipulating the density of the medium. This technique allowed the manipulation and merging of separately formed 3D biological units, as well as the hybrid biofabrication with biopolymers. In conclusion, we believe that this platform will serve as an important tool in broad fields such as bottom-up tissue engineering, drug discovery and developmental biology.Article Citation - WoS: 22Citation - Scopus: 24Scaffold-Free Biofabrication of Adipocyte Structures With Magnetic Levitation(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2021) Yalçın Özuysal, Özden; Meşe Özçivici, Gülistan; Fıratlıgil Yıldırır, Burcu; Ünal, Yağmur Ceren; Özçivici, Engin; Sarıgil, Öykü; Anıl İnevi, Müge; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur; Yalçın Özuysal, Özden; Özçivici, Engin; Meşe, Gülistan; Sarıgil, Öykü; Özçivici, Engin; Anıl İnevi, Müge; Meşe Özçivici, Gülistan; 03.01.

Faculty of ScienceTissue engineering research aims to repair the form and/or function of impaired tissues. Tissue engineering studies mostly rely on scaffold-based techniques. However, these techniques have certain challenges, such as the selection of proper scaffold material, including mechanical properties, sterilization, and fabrication processes. As an alternative, we propose a novel scaffold-free adipose tissue biofabrication technique based on magnetic levitation. In this study, a label-free magnetic levitation technique was used to form three-dimensional (3D) scaffold-free adipocyte structures with various fabrication strategies in a microcapillary-based setup. Adipogenic-differentiated 7F2 cells and growth D1 ORL UVA stem cells were used as model cells. The morphological properties of the 3D structures of single and cocultured cells were analyzed. The developed procedure leads to the formation of different patterns of single and cocultured adipocytes without a scaffold. Our results indicated that adipocytes formed loose structures while growth cells were tightly packed during 3D culture in the magnetic levitation platform. This system has potential for ex vivo modeling of adipose tissue for drug testing and transplantation applications for cell therapy in soft tissue damage. Also, it will be possible to extend this technique to other cell and tissue types.Book Part Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 15Single Cell Densitometry and Weightlessness Culture of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Using Magnetic Levitation(Humana Press, 2020) Anıl İnevi, Müge; Özçivici, Engin; Yılmaz, Esra; Sarıgil, Öykü; Sarıgil, Öykü; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur; Anıl İnevi, Müge; Özçivici, Engin; 03.01. Department of Bioengineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology; 03. Faculty of EngineeringMagnetic levitation methodology enables density-based separation of microparticles/cells and sustains cell culture in different media. Levitation process can be accomplished via negative magnetophoresis (diamagnetophoresis), where the applied magnetic force compensates gravitational acceleration and the density of the diamagnetic object (e.g., cell) determines its levitation height. Here we describe a portable, sensitive, and cost-effective technology that uses the principles of magnetic levitation to measure single cell density and cell culture under desired conditions. © 2019, Springer Science+Business Media New York.Article Citation - WoS: 79Citation - Scopus: 94Biofabrication of in Situ Self Assembled 3d Cell Cultures in a Weightlessness Environment Generated Using Magnetic Levitation(Nature Publishing Group, 2018) Yalçın Özuysal, Özden; Tekin, Hüseyin Cumhur; Özçivici, Engin; Arslan Yıldız, Ahu; Meşe Özçivici, Gülistan; Yaman, Sena; Anıl İnevi, Müge; 03.01.

Izmir Institute of TechnologyMagnetic levitation though negative magnetophoresis is a novel technology to simulate weightlessness and has recently found applications in material and biological sciences. Yet little is known about the ability of the magnetic levitation system to facilitate biofabrication of in situ three dimensional (3D) cellular structures. Here, we optimized a magnetic levitation though negative magnetophoresis protocol appropriate for long term levitated cell culture and developed an in situ 3D cellular assembly model with controlled cluster size and cellular pattern under simulated weightlessness. The developed strategy outlines a potential basis for the study of weightlessness on 3D living structures and with the opportunity for real-time imaging that is not possible with current ground-based simulated weightlessness techniques. The low-cost technique presented here may offer a wide range of biomedical applications in several research fields, including mechanobiology, drug discovery and developmental biology.
