来自哈佛大学Wyss生物工程研究所的研究人员在排列人类活细胞的微型芯片上模拟了肺水肿。正如发表《科学—转化医学》(Science Translation Medicine)杂志上的论文所报道,他们利用这种“芯片上的肺”(lung-on-a-chip)研究了药物的毒性并确定了防止这种威胁生命的疾病的潜在新治疗。
 
这一研究提供了进一步的概念证明“芯片上的器官”(organs-on-chips)拥有巨大的潜力替代传统方法进行药物发现和开发。
 
研究的资深作者、Wyss生物工程研究所创始主任Donald Ingber博士说:“大型制药公司花费很多的时间和大量的金钱在细胞培养物和动物测试上以开发新药。但这些方法往往无法预测这些药物对于人体的影响。”
 
研究小组于2年前首次描述的这种lung-on-a-chip是一种透明、柔性的多聚物,大约一个记忆棒大小,包含空心通道,采用计算机微芯片制造技术制成。两个通道用一种薄的柔性的多孔膜分隔,一面排列来自气囊的人类肺细胞并暴露于空气中;另一面上放置人类毛细血管血液细胞,培养液留过它们的表面。向侧通道施加真空使这一组织间的界面变形重建呼吸时人类肺组织的物理扩张和收缩。
 
Wyss技术开发人员Dongeun Huh博士在“芯片上的肺”中研究了一种称作IL-2的癌症化疗药物。IL-2的主要毒副作用是肺水肿,这是一种肺脏中充满液体和血凝块的致病性疾病。
 
当将IL-2注入到lung-on-a-chip的血液通道中,液体漏过膜及两个组织层,减少了另外一个通道中的空气量,损害了氧运输——就像当以相等剂量,相同的时间过程内在人类患者肺脏中的情形。血浆蛋白还进入到空气通道,导致空气空间中形成血凝块,如同用IL-2治疗的人类中所发生的。
 
研究结果表明呼吸的物理行为大大地促进了IL-2在肺水肿中的效应——“一些临床医生和科学家们从来没有怀疑过的东西,”Ingber说。当研究小组接通开启在芯片上的真空模拟呼吸,当用临床相关IL-2剂量治疗时液体渗漏增高了3倍,Wyss研究小组在肺气肿的动物模型中证实发生了同样的反应。这一结果有可能表明医生用IL-2治疗戴上呼吸器的患者,应该减少压入肺中空气的潮气量以减少这一药物的副作用。
 
对于未来的药物测试最令人兴奋的是Wyss研究小组发现“这种芯片上人类肺水肿模型可用于体外鉴别新的潜在治疗药物,”Ingber说。在lung-on-a-chip疾病模型中的肺水肿症状可通过葛兰素史克公司(GSK)开发的一类新药TRPV4通道阻滞剂来治疗。在发表于同一杂志的另一项研究中,GSK的研究小组采用一种由心衰引起的肺水肿动物模型证实了TRPV4抑制在减轻肺水肿上的积极效应。
 
“在短短两年多的时间内,我们从初步的lung-on-a-chip设计进展至证实它模拟一种复杂人类疾病的潜力,它让人们大概了解了未来药物发现和开发有可能是什么样,”Ingber说。
 
“芯片上的器官代笔了一种模拟人类器官结构、生物学和功能的新方法,这一点通过这一工程肺的复杂呼吸行为得到了证实。这种呼吸行为是重要的,提供了肺水肿病因学的新认识。这些结果为更广泛地利用这种微系统研究疾病病理学提供了支持,并有希望鉴别出新的治疗靶点,”NIH项目协调、规划和战略行动部主任James M. Anderson博士说。

A Human Disease Model of Drug Toxicity–Induced Pulmonary Edema in a Lung-on-a-Chip Microdevice

Preclinical drug development studies currently rely on costly and time-consuming animal testing because existing cell culturemodels fail to recapitulate complex, organ-level disease processes in humans. We provide the proof of principle for usinga biomimetic microdevice that reconstitutes organ-level lung functions to create a human disease model-on-a-chip that mimicspulmonary edema. The microfluidic device, which reconstitutes the alveolar-capillary interface of the human lung, consistsof channels lined by closely apposed layers of human pulmonary epithelial and endothelial cells that experience air and fluidflow, as well as cyclic mechanical strain to mimic normal breathing motions. This device was used to reproduce drug toxicity–inducedpulmonary edema observed in human cancer patients treated with interleukin-2 (IL-2) at similar doses and over the same timeframe. Studies using this on-chip disease model revealed that mechanical forces associated with physiological breathing motionsplay a crucial role in the development of increased vascular leakage that leads to pulmonary edema, and that circulating immunecells are not required for the development of this disease. These studies also led to identification of potential new therapeutics,including angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) and a new transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) ion channel inhibitor (GSK2193874),which might prevent this life-threatening toxicity of IL-2 in the future.

7月4日,Sci Transl Med杂志报道了一项高灵敏的新型全血内稀有细胞检测技术,具有广泛的临床应用前景。 检测稀有细胞(<100个细胞/毫升全血),并对单细胞特异性标志物进行定量测量的能力在基础生物医学研究中日益重要。然而,细胞密度低,样本量小,以及需要对样品进行必要的净化等限制因素阻碍了这种方法在临床的广泛使用。为了克服这些挑战,研究者制定了一个以微量流体芯片为基础的微型霍尔探测

七步写出高水平SCI论文 (刘波)

国内比较注重论文数量,一些研究生读博士的时候就能发表不少论文。我在国内读博士的时候也发表不少论文,来新加坡国立大学后,发现他们的评价标准是他引次数除以论文数量,如果别人不引用,论文数越多平均他引次数反而更小,所以很少有人片面追求数量。这里结合自己的一些经验,讲述一下写出高水平论文的一些建议,相信对正苦于如何发表SCI论文的博士们是有借鉴价值的。1. 研究方向要在自己擅长的领域选择,或者有擅长该方向

如何写好论文的各个不同部分

引言部分:点石成金,阐明研究的目的与意义,提出假说 “引言”必须向读者提供足够的背景信息,让他们明白你工作的来龙去脉。它不必也不应是该领域的全面文献综述—那是综述性论文的事情。相反,它应指出“现有问题”,也就是你的研究问题,从而确立该研究的根据。“引言”还应简要说明你如何着手这个问题,以及你取得的进展。换言之,“引言”应交待清楚:已有哪些相关的工作、为何需要此研究、你做了哪些工作以及你发现了什么

Sci Transl Med.:MG53蛋白可治疗实验性肌肉萎缩

6月20日,Sci Transl Med杂志报道了一种新的针对细胞膜损伤修复的治疗性蛋白MG53。 mitsugumin53(MG53),是一种肌肉特异性tripartite motif family (TRIM)家族蛋白(该家族蛋白常含三个特定模序结构,分别被称为RING指,B-BOX,和卷曲结构域。它们共同作用结合在细胞不再需要的蛋白质上,将这些蛋白带上泛素标记以便降解),也是一种细胞膜修复

SCI中文作者常见的7大错误

SCI投稿被拒后杂志社一般会给出具体的拒稿原因,Medsci小编发现很多中文作者的文章都会因为一些相似的问题被拒稿。因此小编总结了中文作者文中常见的7大错误,希望大家能尽量地避免这些错误,给审稿人留下一个好的印象,增加修回的机会。【论文写作中常见错误】1. 以摘要代替前言摘要动辄几百个字,充斥着各种实验方法和数据。有些作者特别喜欢罗列数字,让人看得头晕眼花。而到了正文的前言部分,反倒惜墨如金,几十

SCI TRANSL MED :嗜睡者脑脊髓液中一物质似安眠药

来自埃默里大学医学院的研究人员发现数十名对睡眠具有高需求的成年人脑脊髓液中有一种物质能像安眠药一样起作用。研究结果在线发表在11月21日的《科学—转化医学》(Science Translational Medicine)杂志上。 这一患者群的一些成员似乎患有一种称作“原发性嗜睡症”的独特的令人丧失能力的睡眠紊乱疾病,其不同于众所周知的睡眠呼吸暂停综合症(sleep apnea)或发作性睡
