We examined how peanut-shaped microrobots impacted HT1080 cancer cell lines, aiming to understand the mechanism behind cell death. Surprisingly, we discovered that unlike iron particles, these specific microrobots did not trigger ferroptosis. Additionally, when we tried to understand the mechanism behind the cell death by using ferroptosis inhibitors, they did not rescue the cells from death as expected. These results suggest that the cytotoxic effects of peanut-shaped microrobots on HT1080 cells may involve alternative pathways rather than ferroptosis.</p>","PeriodicalId":72027,"journal":{"name":"...

Despite the recent surge of activity in this area, there still does not exist a system that contains most of the practical components for carrying out many complex tasks, such as fast and precise motion, tunable speed, appropriate length scale, bio-orthogonality, and high throughput in the form controlling many robots at one time. Here, we demonstrate these characteristics in the form of an acoustically powered microrobot steered by an applied magnetic field. The acoustic propulsion mechanism provides a variety of highly desirable features, such as high speed, precision, short-range attractive forces utilized as an end effector, and orthogonality in any liquid medium. The potential power of this approach is highlighted by cargo pickup and delivery to individual cells and also cellular manipulation. In this paper, we show that not only are acoustic microrobots bio-compatible, but can also be used for cellular manipulation and targeted delivery.</p>","PeriodicalId":72027,"journal":{"name":"...

One biocompatible means of driving microrobots relies on magnetic actuation. In particular, microrobots driven using rotating fields rather than magnetic field gradients are especially practical for real-word applications. Many biological applications involve enclosed environments, such as blood vessels, in which surfaces are abundant, therefore, surface rolling is a particularly pertinent method of transportation. In this paper we demonstrate manipulation and transportation of cells using two types of magnetically driven rolling microrobots. We find that the microrobots are able to manipulate the cells by physically pushing or by first adhering to the cells and then carrying them. Microrobots spinning at high rates also can transport cells via the induced fluid flows.</p>","PeriodicalId":72027,"journal":{"name":"...

The role of membrane curvature and lipid ordering in the cell membrane penetration process is well known. However, once the fusion into the cell membrane is already initiated, the fluid dynamics of microrobot penetration based on tension difference of the microrobot solution and membrane curvature at the fusion pore has not been explored yet. Here, we demonstrate how surface tension difference among merging interfaces plays role in microrobot droplet penetration into a liquid bath, mimicking cell membrane fusion. The maximum penetration of a microrobot droplet into a liquid bath depends on the positive difference of surface tension between the droplet and liquid bath, longitudinal curvature of the bridge region, and the size of the droplet.</p>","PeriodicalId":72027,"journal":{"name":"...
