This study aimed at the improvement of the cell position control by changing the curvature radius of the boundary patterns. We indicated the possibility of inducing locally cell density control utilizing the C2C12 myoblast cell responses to the two types of boundaries of the topographical structures. At the presentation, we will explain the mechanism of these phenomena.
