Microphysiological Systems for Comorbidity Studies: Chronic Kidney Disease and Osteoarthritis
This review highlights the potential of organ‐on‐a‐chip systems for studying comorbidities, using chronic kidney disease (CKD) and osteoarthritis (OA) as examples. It summarizes recent advances in kidney‐on‐a‐chip and joint‐on‐a‐chip models and discusses their current and potential application in investigating CKD, OA, and CKD‐OA comorbidity, aiming to

Nanobody‐Decorated Lipid Nanoparticles for Enhanced mRNA Delivery to Tumors In Vivo
This study presents a targeted mRNA‐LNP platform engineered with anti‐PSMA nanobodies for prostate cancer therapy. Using different in vivo models, the authors demonstrate selective uptake and mRNA delivery in PSMA+ cancer cells. However, while targeting is enhanced, mRNA delivery efficacy is limited by tissue penetration, tumor necrosis, and immune ...

Engineered 3D‐Cad/IL6‐MSC, developed through synergistic hE/N‐cad‐Fc and IL‐6 preconditioning, show remarkable therapeutic potential for systemic sclerosis. These engineered MSC aggregates reduce pathogenic inflammatory cell infiltration and restore immune balance among CD4+ T‐cell populations, offering a promising approach to optimize MSC based ...

Bone fracture healing is a complex, timely orchestrated scenario involving multiple cell types and a plethora of cytokines and regulatory factors. To gain further insight, an in vitro model to a) study macrophage polarization under mechanical load in a fibrin hydrogel and b) subsequently assess the effect of conditioned media derived from macrophages ...

Animal‐Free Setup of a 3D Mature Adipocyte‐Macrophage Co‐Culture to Induce Inflammation In Vitro
A completely animal‐free 3D co‐culture is developed using human fat cells and immune cells. Animal‐based materials are replaced with gellan gum hydrogel and a serum‐free medium. Immune cells are effectively activated, producing specific inflammatory signals.
