Bioengineering ethics for the age of microphysiological systems [PDF]
The development of microphysiological systems (MPS) is pushing ethical standards in biomedical research to a breaking point. This article argues that only a perspective drawing from engineering ethics will be able to address the new challenges raised by ...

Gastrointestinal microphysiological systems [PDF]
Gastrointestinal diseases are a significant health care and economic burden. Prevention and treatment of these diseases have been limited by the available human biologic models. Microphysiological systems comprise organ-specific human cultures that recapitulate many structural, biological, and functional properties of the organ in smaller scale ...

Modeling immunity in microphysiological systems. [PDF]
There is a need for better predictive models of the human immune system to evaluate safety and efficacy of immunomodulatory drugs and biologics for successful product development and regulatory approvals. Current in vitro models, which are often tested in two-dimensional (2D) tissue culture polystyrene, and preclinical animal models fail to fully ...

In vitro modelling of extracellular matrix changes during skin aging: from static 2D to 3D dynamic microphysiological systems [PDF]
Skin aging results from a combination of intrinsic factors and exogenous stimuli, leading to changes in the structure and components of the extracellular matrix (including the skin basement membrane), which directly influence the aging process.

Human Microphysiological Systems and Organoids as in Vitro Models for Toxicological Studies
Organoids and microphysiological systems represent two current approaches to reproduce organ function in vitro. These systems can potentially provide unbiased assays of function which are needed to understand the mechanism of action of environmental ...

Microphysiological Systems: Design, Fabrication, and Applications
Microphysiological systems, including organoids, 3-D printed tissue constructs and organ-on-a-chips (organ chips), are physiologically relevant in vitro models and have experienced explosive growth in the past decades. Different from conventional, tissue culture plastic-based in vitro models or animal models, microphysiological systems recapitulate key
