Abstract
Recent advancements in nano- and microfabrication techniques have led to the development of highly biomimetic patterned substrates able to guide neuronal sprouting, routing, elongation, and branching. Such substrates, recapitulating shapes and geometries found in the native brain, may pave the way toward the development of cell instructive paradigms able to guide morphogenesis at the neuron-material interface. In this scenario, high-resolution electron microscopy approaches, owing to their ability of discerning the details of neural morphogenesis at a nanoscale resolution, may play a crucial role in unravelling the fine ultrastructure of neurons interfacing with biomimetic structured substrates.
