Microfluidic platforms for mechanobiology.
Mechanotransduction has been a topic of considerable interest since early studies demonstrated a link between mechanical force and biological response. Until recently, studies of fundamental phenomena were based either on in vivo experiments with limited control or direct access, or on large-scale in vitro studies lacking many of the potentially important physiological factors. With the advent ...
متن کاملMitochondria operate as signaling platforms in yeast aging
are vital to physiology and health of eukaryotic organisms across phyla. These organelles generate the majority of cellular ATP and create biosynthetic intermediates for amino acids, nucleotides and lipids [1]. Mitochondria can also operate as signaling platforms and structural scaffolds for coordinating diverse cellular responses to changes in a variety of physiological conditions [2, 3]. Ther...
متن کاملMicrofluidic-Based Multi-Organ Platforms for Drug Discovery
Development of predictive multi-organ models before implementing costly clinical trials is central for screening the toxicity, efficacy, and side effects of new therapeutic agents. Despite significant efforts that have been recently made to develop biomimetic in vitro tissue models, the clinical application of such platforms is still far from reality. Recent advances in physiologically-based ph...
متن کاملMicrofluidic chip-based technologies: emerging platforms for cancer diagnosis
The development of early and personalized diagnostic protocols is considered the most promising avenue to decrease mortality from cancer and improve outcome. The emerging microfluidic-based analyzing platforms hold high promises to fulfill high-throughput and high-precision screening with reduced equipment cost and low analysis time, as compared to traditional bulky counterparts in bench-top la...
متن کاملA Rapid Micromixer for Centrifugal Microfluidic Platforms
This paper presents an innovative mixing technology for centrifugal microfluidic platforms actuated using a specially designed flyball governor. The multilayer microfluidic disc was fabricated using a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) replica molding process with a soft lithography technique. The operational principle is based on the interaction between the elastic covering membrane and an actuator p...
