From chip-in-a-lab to lab-on-a-chip: towards a single handheld electronic system for multiple application-specific lab-on-a-chip (ASLOC)

open access: yes, 2020
We present a portable, battery-operated and application-specific lab-on-a-chip (ASLOC) system that can be easily configured for a wide range of lab-on-a-chip applications. It is based on multiplexed electrical current detection that serves as the sensing

Integrated human organ-on-a-chip model for predictive studies of anti-tumor drug efficacy and cardiac safety

open access: yesLab on a Chip, 2020
Traditional drug screening models are often unable to faithfully recapitulate human physiology in health and disease, motivating the development of microfluidic organs-on-a-chip (OOC) platforms that can mimic many aspects of human physiology and in the ...

Profiling of promoter occupancy by PPARalpha in human hepatoma cells via ChIP-chip analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The transcription factor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARalpha) is an important regulator of hepatic lipid metabolism. While PPARalpha is known to activate transcription of numerous genes, no comprehensive picture of PPARalpha ...

An immune-competent lung-on-a-chip for modelling the human severe influenza infection response

open access: yesNature Biomedical Engineering
Severe influenza affects 3–5 million people worldwide each year, resulting in more than 300,000 deaths annually. However, standard-of-care antiviral therapeutics have limited effectiveness in these patients. Current preclinical models of severe influenza
