Self-organization of hepatocyte morphogenesis depending on the size of collagen microbeads relative to hepatocytes

Recent advances in microfabrication technologies have enabled us to construct collagen gel microbeads, which can be cultured with hepatocytes. However, little is known about the hepatocyte-collagen gel microbead interactions. Here, we aimed to clarify the effects of the balance between cell-cell and...
