Method of culturing neurons, neuron culture substrate, neurons, neuron system, and method for manufacturing neuron system

摘要

There is provided a method for controlling morphological growth of neurons by specifically controlling the surface configuration of a substrate. There is also provided a neuron culture substrate necessary for application of the method and neurons controlled in morphological growth. The method for culturing neurons include, providing a culture medium and neurons on a cell culture substrate 1 and culturing the neurons in corresponding culture conditions wherein the culture surface of the cell culture substrate 1 has a plurality of protrusions 4, and the shape, interval or both is controlled to control morphological growth of the neurons.
