Aspects of vascularization in Multi-Organ-Chips
Background Enormous efforts have been made to develop circulation systems for physiological nutrient supply and waste removal of in vitro cultured tissues. These developments are aiming for in vitro generation of organ equivalents such as liver, lymph nodes and lung or even multi-organ systems for substance testing, research on organ regeneration or transplant manufacturing. Initially technical...
متن کاملIntegration concepts for multi-organ chips: how to maintain flexibility?!
Multi-organ platforms have an enormous potential to lead to a paradigm shift in a multitude of research domains including drug development, toxicological screening, personalized medicine as well as disease modeling. Integrating multiple organ-tissues into one microfluidic circulation merges the advantages of cell lines (human genetic background) and animal models (complex physiology) and enable...
متن کاملBioprinting in Vascularization Strategies
Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology has revolutionized tissue engineering field because of its excellent potential of accurately positioning cell-laden constructs. One of the main challenges in the formation of functional engineered tissues is the lack of an efficient and extensive network of microvessels to support cell viability. By printing vascular cells and appropriate biomaterials,...
متن کاملμOrgano: A Lego®-Like Plug & Play System for Modular Multi-Organ-Chips
Human organ-on-a-chip systems for drug screening have evolved as feasible alternatives to animal models, which are unreliable, expensive, and at times erroneous. While chips featuring single organs can be of great use for both pharmaceutical testing and basic organ-level studies, the huge potential of the organ-on-a-chip technology is revealed by connecting multiple organs on one chip to create...
متن کاملHuman multi-organ chips – a possible solution for animal free systemic ADMET testing
Animal free systemic toxicity and ADMe testing predictive of human exposure is currently the major challenge for science, regulatory bodies and the industry involved. On the one hand, modern test system engineering focuses mainly on single organ equivalents, rather than the systemic combination of organs. On the other hand, none of the currently available systems ensures long-term homeostasis o...
