The main task of epithelial cells is to form a physical barrier, which is characterized by the properties of the cytoskeleton and cell-cell contacts. The principal aim of the first part of this project is to modulate the structure of these macromolecular complexes, optimizing the mechanical properties of the cells by a spatially hierarchically ordered and t-variable nanostructured culture substrate . Thus, at first, we have to investigate and control the growing and arrangement of these cells on different surfaces and, later, to define and influence the subcellular structure with chemically nanostructured culture substrates. In this poster we show AFM and optical microscopy experiments on adherent cells on different substrates. We discuss the influence of the substrate on cell morphology and on AFM images.
