Modelling cigarette smoke-induced lung vascular dysfunction using an alveolus-on-chip

This paper presents an alveolus-on-chip model to study vascular-epithelial interactions and smoke-induced lung injury, showing that cigarette smoke disrupts vascular networks when exposed to alveolar epithelial cells.

A workflow integrating organ-on-chip culture and correlative 3D light and electron microscopy for microtissue analysis

This paper presents a workflow combining organ-on-chip culture with 3D light and electron microscopy for microtissue analysis, demonstrating the feasibility of extended live imaging and focused ion beam/SEM for ultrastructural study.

Cytokine-induced memory-like responses in endothelial cells link chronic inflammation to vascular disease risk

This study shows that repeated cytokine exposure in endothelial cells induces memory-like responses, linking chronic inflammation to vascular disease risk through persistent transcriptional and epigenetic changes.

Long-term daily light exposure boosts photoreceptor maturation in retinal organoids

Daily light exposure improves photoreceptor maturation in retinal organoids without causing cell death.

STARTER : A Stand-Alone Reconfigurable and TranslationalOoC Platorm based on Modularity and Open Design Principles

The paper introduces a modular microfluidic platform for Organ-on-Chips that supports interoperability, reconfigurability, and open design to enhance collaboration and translation.
