We demonstrate effective guidance of neurites extending from PC12 cells in a three-dimensional collagen matrix using a focused infrared laser. Processes can be redirected in an arbitrarily chosen direction in the imaging plane in approximately 30 min with an 80% success rate. In addition, the application of the laser beam significantly increases the rate of neurite outgrowth. These results extend previous observations on 2D coated glass coverslips. We find that the morphology of growth cones is very different in 3D than in 2D, and that this difference suggests that the filopodia play a key role in optical guidance. This powerful, flexible, non-contact guidance technique has potentially broad applications in tissues and engineered environments.
