Methods
Endometrial (n = 9) and myometrial biopsies (n = 4) were enzymatically dissociated to create epithelial, stromal and myometrial cellular fractions. Cell suspensions were seeded into non-adhesive poly(dimethylsiloxane) microfluidic devices containing 5 × 5 microwell arrays. The fate of individual cell types was monitored in real-time using fluorescent tracers, and cell phenotype was characterized by immunocytochemistry. Model functionality was assessed by measuring Ca2+ responses to agonist stimulation, and both insulin-like growth factor binding protein 1 (IGFBP-1) and osteopontin secretion in response to hormone stimulation.
