Abstract
Oxidative stress and inflammation induced by cigarette smoking are associated with the pathology process of various chronic respiratory diseases, including asthma, emphysema, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and cancer. Compared with conventional cell culture techniques, microfluidic chips can provide a continuous nutrient supply, mimic the in vivo physiological microenvironment of the cells, and conduct an integrated and flexible analysis of cell status and functions. Here, we designed and fabricated a bionic-lung chip, which was applied to perform cigarette smoke exposure of BEAS-2B cells cultured at the gas-liquid interface. The oxidative stress and inflammation in the cells exposed to cigarette smoke were investigated on chip. The results showed that cellular damage, oxidative stress and inflammatory response induced by cigarette smoke in the chip were dependent on smoke concentration and time after smoke exposure. N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) significantly inhibited these effects of cigarette smoke exposure on the cells at the gas-liquid interface within the chip.
