<p>We developed a technique for producing and separating micrometer-size vesicles from human lymphocytes using microholes. Using cell-anchoring molecules, lymphocytes were immobilized on a microhole array formed in a silicon nitride (SiN) membrane. Then, the cells were chemically stimulated with sodium butyrate, and the vesicle production was induced near the microholes with the assistance of the cell-anchoring molecules. This resulted in the vesicle production inside the microholes, and the vesicles finally passed through the microholes. We tested microholes having 3 different diameters of 2, 4, and 7.5 µm, and counted the number of fluorescently-stained vesicles and cells which passed through microholes of each diameter. The number of vesicles increased with increasing diameter of microholes, but the number of invading cells also increased. In case of microholes 4 µm in diameter, a relatively large number of vesicles were obtained, and the cell invasion rate was below 1%, which was the best result in the present experiment. Also, we succeeded in drastically increasing the number of vesicles in case of microholes 2 µm in diameter by preventing vesicles from adhering to the back side of a SiN membrane.</p>
