18th Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Conference, İstanbul, Türkiye, 26 Ağustos - 28 Ekim 2024, ss.92
Nanobiotechnology is very important in cancer research. Glioblastoma is the most common and
aggressive primary malignant brain tumor. In recent years, nanostructured materials have attracted
considerable attention due to their unique properties resulting from their size-dependent
structural/electrical/optical behaviors, and they have become appealing materials in many areas such
as, cancer research, tissue engineering, drug transfer and biosensor . Nanofibers, on the other hand,
provide advantages with their physical and chemical properties in nano dimensions in solving these
problems which are difficult to overcome in macro dimensions. In this study, electrospun PAN and
PAN/C500 nano-fibers on ITO (Indium Tin Oxide) coated glass surface were prepared and coated with
fibronectin to create a 3D glioblastoma tumor model using LN-18 cells. The cells in the model were
evaluated morphologically by fluorescence microscopy and electrochemical measurements were made
performed.
