Intervertebral Disc‐on‐a‐Chip^MF: A New Model for Mouse Disc Culture via Integrating Mechanical Loading and Dynamic Media Flow (Adv. Mater. Technol. 21/2023)

Organ on a Chip In article number 2300606, Jose Oberhozler, Xudong Li, and co-workers develop an innovative and robust platform -Intervertebral Disc-on-a-ChipMF. The image illustrates the system's ability to facilitate dynamic fluid exchange and controlled mechanical loading for discs within a microfluidic biochip. By regulating these essential factors, the system successfully mimics the in vivo microenvironment, thereby demonstrating its promising potential for advancing biological and pathological research of intervertebral disc.
