제목 Brain-on-a-Chip Technology for Mimicking Brain Microvasculature Physiology and Pathology
초록 We present a brain-on-a-chip platform in which multiple types of human brain-originated brain cells were cocultured in a 3D microenvironment with perfusable brain microvasculature. The brain microvasculature was fabricated by using microneedles as templates. By seeding the brain microvascular endothelial cells in the luminal surface of the channel and embedding other neural cells in the collagen, a 3D brain model was prepared. The brain microvasculature physiology was confirmed through transendothelial permeability, immunofluorescence imaging, and cytokine assay. Neuropathology such as brain tumor and particulate matter-induced neuroinflammation were recapitulated in the brain-on-a-chip platform. Pathophysiological features as well as the efficacy of pharmaceutical candidates were evaluated in the platforms.
