Microphysiological Systems in Cancer Research: Advancing Immunotherapy through Tumor Microenvironment‐Integrated Organ‐On‐Chip Models

Advanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Emerging microphysiological systems reproduce the spatial, biochemical, and cellular complexity of the tumor microenvironment, surpassing 2D cultures and murine models. By integrating patient‐derived tumors, perfusable vasculature, and immune trafficking, these organ‐on‐chip platforms reveal mechanisms of immune evasion, predict therapeutic responses ...

Drug delivery in overcoming the blood-brain barrier: role of nasal mucosal grafting [PDF]

, 2017
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) plays a fundamental role in protecting and maintaining the homeostasis of the brain. For this reason, drug delivery to the brain is much more difficult than that to other compartments of the body. In order to bypass or cross
