Abstract
Self-supporting honeycomb films consisting of poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) and amphiphilic polymer were prepared by casting a dilute solution under high humidity. The stretched honeycomb films were prepared by stretching the honeycomb films uniaxially. Cardiac myocytes were cultured on the serf-supporting patterned films. The cells were investigated the focal adhesion on the patterned films by immunofluorescence microscopy. As a result, the vinculin were localized along the edge of the pores of patterned films. Therefore, it was indicated that the cardiac myocytes adhered to the edge of the pores of the patterned films.
